Most business corporations have therefore put up extra infrastructural provisions for their disabled staff while some have gone an extra mile of providing their disabled employees with particularly skilled and trained dogs as guides. When it comes to enrollment processes companies and businesses are not legalized by the law to discard job applicants from disabled people. Some major large corporations give predilections to the disabled candidates during their selection procedures.

Despite many crucial developments surrounding acceptance of others there is still a long and arduous path ahead of our society. People with disabilities, whatever a given disability may be and mean for the individual, are frequently stigmatized. They are not always offered equal opportunities, nor are they always offered the proper support to fortify their capabilities so that the individual may be the best they can be. Because of this there are many people who never go or return to college, are unemployed, or are isolated from the community.

If we as a country want to continue to compete on a global scale; we have to include all are citizens as able body individuals with a multitude of gifts and talents to contribute to society, if we just give them the

The good news is, there are steps organizations can take to improve this issue. One such step would be to do some reflective learning and re-examining and reflecting their own fundamental values. They have to look at their underlying norms, policies and goals and modify it if necessary. Then they have to actively seek out disabled people and their skills, understand and acknowledge their different needs, and modifying organizational practices to meet their needs (Wooten & James, 2005, p.

In the article, Cultural Beliefs and Attitudes about Disability in East Africa, reported many East African communities had varied beliefs about where disabilities come from such as punishment for misdeeds, to Christian based views of divine intervention, to medical explanations as well as sometimes a combination of any of the three. What was interesting was a common theme found in regards to their value frequently fell to the ability to contribute to the community and/or to fit in to social norms (social development). This seemed to be more common in the rural areas. In other more urban areas, the complete opposite was found. Education was denied to families with children who had disabilities, work opportunities were also denied to them. The report further states “there is more compelling evidence that individuals with disabilities in East Africa continue to be excluded from schools and opportunities for work, virtually ensuring that they will be live as the poorest of the

On 18 July 2002, the UK based newspaper, the Daily Mirror, published a front page article that showed a horrific and disturbing photograph of a four year old Indian girl from a rural village, tied to building with a rope around her neck. The article read: “three days later, the helpless child was head…her crime was being mentally subnormal [sic] and female” (Light, 2005). Just six months before the start of the European Year of Disabled People, this article helped to highlight the plight of disabled people and their treatment as second class citizens in some areas of the world. Such scenes would not be captured in New York or London, or even, one would hope in some small town or village in the United States (US) or the United Kingdom (UK), but the simple reality is that disabled

Before we begin, let’s take a look at the country and its environs. Nigeria a former British Colony, located in the western part of Africa, it shares borders with Benin, Cameroun, and Niger. A growing population of 150million, labour force of 51million (70% Agriculture, 10% industry and 20% service), urbanisation is less than 40%, GDP is over $300billion, Per capita income is $2300. Nigeria is blessed with different cultures, languages and ethnic groups (252 in total); this was due to the colonization of the British in the early 19th century (Columbia Encyclopaedia). The British amalgamated its protectorates in 1914 to enable stable control and governance which made them create one Nation of Nigeria formed from all the groups, community and empires around the Niger area under their control. Nigeria had her independence on the 1st of October 1960 and since then various civil wars, political and religious unrest in the country to share power and resources amicably.

The objective of this paper is to use the triangle model of social analysis to further analyze the issue of youth unemployment. After having a group discussion we have come to a conclusion that this model will allow us to get a deep understanding of the impact that social institutions have on our dominant ideologies and how they are framed through the influence of different institutions. Youth unemployment is an extremely important issue in today’s society and time because over the past decade, youth unemployment has been rapidly increasing and is starting to become a serious, economic and social problem for Canada and other industrialized countries.

Most children in the Niger delta have little or no education, due to lack of funds from their parents who have lost their lands and have no jobs because of limited opportunities. The Niger delta government and the oil companies have refused to look into the situation; instead they favor their close relations neglecting the masses. Corruption in the Niger delta has led some youths in taking drastic measure in order to put food on their table. For example, Ikechukwu Efe an indigene of the Niger delta said that some of his friends created their own “oil refinery”, which is made up of crude oil in metal barrels with controlled heat from fire woods. This is a dangerous process in refining crude oil but the degree of poverty in the state left his friends with no choice. If only the government of the Niger delta have created jobs with the wealth of the state Ikechukwu’s friend would not have to put their lives in danger. Until corruption is put to an abrupt the people of the Niger delta will continue to live in poverty.
