DCIDJ has been moved from Liliane Foundation to the University of Gondar

July 31, 2023

We are pleased to inform you that the Disability, CBR, and Inclusive Development Journal (DCIDJ) has moved from the Liliane Foundation (https://dcidj.org) to the University of Gondar (https://dcidj.uog.edu.et). The University of Gondar is the only university that owns CBR Program in Ethiopia. The CBR program was established in 2005 in partnership with Light for the World and Save the Children to alleviate various problems faced by PwDs due to lack of access to rehabilitation services and community awareness. The University of Gondar (Ethiopia) and Queen’s University (Canada), supported by the Mastercard Foundation, have developed a 10-year partnership to advance inclusive higher education for young people with disabilities, develop new occupational therapy programs and advance research for inclusive education and community-based rehabilitation in Africa. Hence, the University of Gondar is an excellent fit to manage the journal as it has huge experience in the field of disability, CBR, and inclusive development.

The DCIDJ is an online journal with a 33-year-old history of publishing research in the broad field of rehabilitation and disability inclusion. It is an open-access journal that aims to provide a platform for high-quality and innovative research that includes a diverse range of perspectives, including academics, researchers, scholars, and postgraduate students. The journal covers topics such as disability rights, inclusive education, community-based rehabilitation, disability and development, and more. The journal is a quarterly publication that will be available online in four issues per year. We would like to acknowledge the good relationship with the Liliane Foundation and Enablement who choose the University of Gondar as a sustainable base as this university is one of the leading universities in Ethiopia in the field of disability, development, and rehabilitation. This is a positive step towards enhancing the dissemination and impact of research and knowledge in the CBR/CBID community.

Interdisciplinary Conference on Disability and Community-Based Rehabilitation

July 23, 2023

The University of Gondar (Ethiopia) and Queen’s University (Canada), in partnership with the Mastercard Foundation Scholars Program, have developed a 10-year collaboration to advance inclusive higher education for young people with disabilities, create a new occupational therapy program, and advance research for inclusive education and community-based rehabilitation in Africa (website: https://uogqueensmcf.com/uog-queens-collaboration/). The project has successfully completed its first five years and has begun to generate and share evidence to support inclusion of people with disabilities in Ethiopia. To nurture our learning and create a bridge between researchers, practitioners, community developers, university administrators, policymakers, and persons with disabilities, the project is delighted to host an international conference on disability and inclusion on October 25-26, 2023 in Gondar, Ethiopia.
