Director of Unison NGO Armen Alaverdyan said that people with
disabilities need to be integrated into our society so that the
society learns to treat them correctly.
"If people get used to seeing people with disabilities in all fields,
their reaction will be rather adequate," Alaverdyan told a press
conference.
According to him, seeing a person with disabilities, people
start feeling sorry what is absolutely unacceptable. "People with
disabilities need assistance rather than compassion and indulgence,"
said Alaverdyan.
However, he noted that a considerable step forward was taken in this
matter in Armenia over recent years. People started treating people
with disabilities more adequately.
