The fundamental principle of disability policy is for society to be shaped in such a way that all citizens will have the same possibilities. It is therefore of importance to the whole of society for everyone to have equal living conditions and to be able to assist and participate in social development. Handisam is helping to make that vision come true.
The most important policy document is From patient to citizen. A national action plan for disability policy. This action plan covers all sectors of society and shows disability policy to be of an inter-sectoral nature.
