Linkages to other CBR components
Page 7/8
The Livelihood component, like every other component of the CBR matrix, has very strong linkages with the other components. There are necessary linkages between efforts to promote and facilitate livelihood in CBR and efforts to enhance access to health care, education services and social opportunities. For example:
- An individual with a disability needs to be healthy and may need an assistive device in order to work
- Future work opportunities are greatly enhanced for children and youth who have access to primary and secondary education, and opportunities for skills training
- An adult with a disability who is working is empowered and better able to obtain the necessities of life in order to maintain a family and participate actively in social, cultural and political life
