Distinctive creativity comes from a strong will and determination to achieve success against all odds. The latent energy and capabilities of people with special needs are often demonstrated through their participation In various social activities. Just like able-bodied persons, the people with special needs can learn, train, work and get married. This helps them integrate with the rest of society and contribute to the social and economic development of the country.
Emirates Post has been making earnest efforts to support people with special needs by highlighting their creativity through the products they produce. As part of this activity, Emirates Post had organized a handicraft contest In coordination with various Institutions for special needs in the UAE from April 1 to 30, 2004.
