I haven’t even begun to figure out all the possible synergies, strategies and tactics available to Guardians. No one has, and none of us will for a long, long time. That’s part of the fun of being part of an MMO community during its earliest days—we shape the metagame. This leads me to the end of my guide, but before I wrap things up, I want to talk about a few issues frequently encountered by new players: What’s the best build for dungeons? There isn’t one. If anyone’s asking you to “go healer” for a dungeon, they’re probably just misguided. I’m getting overwhelmed by enemies. Two things: Make judicious use of your defenses. Fights end relatively quickly in Guild Wars 2, and unlike other MMOs, standing toe to toe with the enemy and exchanging blows doesn’t work.

Along with dodging, learn to use defenses judiciously. Mary Immaculate College. People with Disabilities and the Role of Social Workers in Lesotho. Christopher Chitereka, Department of Anthropology, Sociology and Social Work, The National University of Lesotho, Southern Africa 1 Introduction According to Pachaka (2003:109) the United Nations General Assembly adopted the World Programme of Action Concerning Disabled Persons at its 37th regular session in 1982.

People with Disabilities and the Role of Social Workers in Lesotho

The purpose of that programme was to promote measures for prevention of disabilities, rehabilitation and realisation of goals, “full participation” of disabled persons in social life, development and “equality”. The Programme further emphasised that these concepts should apply with the same scope and urgency to all countries, regardless of their level of development. It was during this era that public concern and consciousness were directed towards providing people with disabilities with the same opportunities available to ordinary citizens. The paper is divided into seven sections. 2 Lesotho: The Country Poverty is widespread. CBM International. CBM International. Campaigning for disability rights in Lesotho. Disabled people in Lesotho face many barriers which lead to poverty and isolation, including negative attitudes towards disability and a lack of national legislation to protect their human rights.

Campaigning for disability rights in Lesotho

Advocacy and public education have an important role to play in reducing poverty and protecting the rights of disabled people. In 2007, we placed Adam Musgrave as an Advocacy Advisor with the Lesotho National Federation of Organisations for the Disabled (LNFOD). During his two-year placement, Adam worked with his colleagues to plan a major advocacy campaign and develop a three-year strategy to establish national policy and legislation to protect the rights of disabled people. One of Adam’s earliest achievements was co-ordinating a photo exhibition called Breaking the Barriers to challenge negative perceptions about disabled people.

The photos, including this one of Matlekeng who was born with autism, were taken by Eileen O’Leary.

Realising inclusive education for children with disabilities in Lesotho

Lesotho has a high literacy rate of 87%. In spite of this commendable figure, about 40% of children with disabilities (CWDs) between the ages of 5 and 10 do not attend primary school while 23% of children with disabilities between ages 10 and 20 do not attend high school. These figures are significantly higher when compared to children without disabilities in the same age groups.

The Constitution of Lesotho recognises education as a directive principle of state policy under Chapter 3 of the Constitution and not as a justiciable right. Like this: Like Loading... Breaking_The_Barriers_Article.pdf. IDAL - Home. Westwood, Los Angeles Guide - Airbnb Neighbourhoods.
