Hi, everybody! from M.OKUHIRA (JSRPD)
Hi, everybody!
I am Masako, a staff of JSRPD.
I had a business in Philippines in Februry and had a chance to visit Katy's place.
Ms. Enriqueta Peredas Rala (we called her Katy) is working at Provincial Federation of Persons with Disability of Nueva Vizcaya, Inc. Nueva Vizcaya is a province located in a mountain area, 5 - 6 hours from Manila.
Their activity is very interesting. They run a boat house, cafeterria and now are preparing to open a bakery shop.
I heard that opening a bakery shop was her action plan. She is making her plan happen. Great!!! I am so happy to see it.

My very first job from K.NAKATANI (JSRPD)
My very first job for the follow-up program was a kind of exploration of the “store house” at JSRPD, where you can find all the important documents, books, reports, pictures, and other materials.
Reading through the reports of training courses in the past was like studying the history of the disability field in and outside of Japan. Old reports can only give you part of the picture, however, so we decided to send the “Questionnaire for the JICA follow-up Program” to former participants. We received a lot of valuable information from your responses but realized this was only a one-way means of communicating. We thus decided to start up this web site so that we could hear your voice and ex-participants could share their experiences and ideas. Let’s all walk together, talk together and advocate together!
