General Note:

“Abstract: Conflicts within Afghanistan have severely disrupted the few formal rehabilitation services for disabled Afghans. The unsettled situation, together with prevailing socio-economic underdevelopment, poses massive problems for reconstruction. Realistically, afghans with disabilities will have to manage their lives largely with traditional skills and community resources for many years to come. Their indigenous resources may be supplemented with modern rehabilitation information (skills and knowledge) using an ‘information-based’ approach to planning. Some implications of this approach are examined, with examples of information system in practice”—(p. 257).
