Bio

Katim Disability Dance and Artistry (KDDA) is a Team founded by persons with disabilities with an aim of creating an inclusive society in Ethiopia. Our aim is to boost the moral, psychological and physical wellbeing of Person with disabilities through ART and SPORT. At KDDA, we firmly believe that the problems persons with disability facing now cannot be solved by mere focus on the day to day physical needs, but by intensively working on their moral, talent, psychology, and providing them with the proper opportunity that would enable them to be self-reliant and productive part of the society. This is especially true when working with Children & Adults with Disabilities. Our unique approach in School Based Projects, Disability Stage Performances, Disability Specific Dance Therapy & Physical Exercise Sessions are run taking into account this fact in mind.
