Women with disabilities face a double discrimination, both in terms
of gender and also of their particular disability. For many women
their most punishing disability is the attitude taken to them by
society. This book examines the situation of women with various
types of disability in the Middle Eastern context, and describes
the evolution of Oxfam's perspective on working with disabled
women. It provides a general overview of the concept of disability
and includes several case studies from the Lebanon, Yemen, and the
Occupied Palestinian Territories. Each chapter looks at specific
aspects of the issue, and personal histories from disabled women
and members of organizations for disabled people provide gripping
testimony.
