Mobility is more than movement. It is about independence, dignity and opportunity.

On Prosthetics & Orthotics Day 2026, we recognise the life-changing role of prosthetic and orthotic devices in helping people move, participate and live more independently.

From artificial limbs to supportive braces, these technologies are more than medical devices, they are tools that open doors to education, employment, everyday activities and fuller participation in society.

Behind every device is a person, a story and a journey. Let's recognise the individuals, families, caregivers and rehabilitation professionals who make inclusive mobility possible.

Because technology matters, but PEOPLE matter most.

Better Mobility. Greater Independence. Equal Opportunities.

What does inclusion look like in the church?

This World Sunday School Day 2026, the Sunday School Department of Balang U Blei, Nongthymmai & Pohkseh, welcomed students from Jyoti Sroat, Bethany Society, to celebrate together.

Their songs, musical talents and heartfelt message about the goodness of God reminded everyone that every child is created with unique gifts and abilities.

Inclusion is more than simply welcoming someone. It is about creating opportunities to participate, express themselves, build confidence and feel that they truly belong.

Let every place of worship be a place of belonging. Whatever our faith or beliefs, let us open our doors, welcome persons with disabilities, include them in our activities, and support them with kindness, dignity, grace and love. Inclusion begins when everyone is given the opportunity to participate and feel valued.

The State Resource Centre on Disability Affairs (SRCDA), Government of Meghalaya, is collaborating with Goonjan, the app development team at Dhwani Foundation, Bangalore, to digitise the existing RiBhoi ICT Model for comprehensive surveys of Persons with Disabilities (PwDs).

The initiative aims to support frontline workers in conducting structured household surveys, identifying suspected cases requiring further assessment, and recognising gaps in access to government schemes and benefits.

By strengthening data collection and reporting, the initiative seeks to support informed decision-making, improve access to eligible entitlements, and promote more inclusive development across Meghalaya.

Two customised Cerebral Palsy (CP) Chairs were successfully distributed at the Office of the District Social Welfare Officer, Mawkyrwat, on 27th October 2026.

These chairs were crafted by Persons with Disabilities (PwDs) trained as carpenters under the Meghalaya State Skill Development Society (MSSDS), through a collaborative initiative involving the Institute of Cerebral Palsy, Kolkata, and the State Resource Centre on Disability Affairs (SRCDA).

Additionally, three more CP Chairs will be delivered directly to the homes of the beneficiaries who were unable to attend due to health-related concerns, ensuring that support reaches those who need it.

This initiative reflects our continued commitment to promoting accessibility, improving mobility, and enhancing the quality of life of children with cerebral palsy while empowering skilled persons with disabilities through meaningful livelihood opportunities.

Together, we are building a more inclusive Meghalaya!

Did you know that a stroke can affect a person’s ability to walk, move their hands, and carry out everyday activities?

A stroke occurs when the blood supply to part of the brain is interrupted or when a blood vessel in the brain bursts. This can damage brain cells and affect movement, balance, and the ability to perform daily tasks.

In this video, a stroke survivor shares her journey at DRCDA, Civil Hospital Shillong, where occupational therapy and regular exercises have helped her work towards greater independence from walking on her own to eating and fastening her own Jainsem.

Recovery takes time, but every step forward matters. Don’t lose hope.

Visit DRCDA, Civil Hospital Shillong, to learn more about the therapy services available.
