Launching of "Ubuntu: Working together with families of children with developmental disabilities"

The original ‘Getting to know cerebral palsy’ manual has been updated to include useful information for caregivers of children with a range of developmental disabilities, including down syndrome, congenital zika syndrome, microcephaly, and cerebral palsy.
 
The launch will present the updated information, including:

• Addressing developmental disabilities
• Identifying support in families and communities
• Epilepsy and seizures
• Eating and drinking
• Addressing stigma and discrimination at home and in the community
• Assistive products and adapted images
• Sharing emotions and feelings

The Ubuntu manual and materials can be downloaded from the Ubuntu hub.
