The Leadership Development Training for Youth with Disabilities successfully completed. The program aimed to strengthen the leadership skills, confidence, and awareness of rights among young persons with disabilities.

The training brought together youth participants from Yangchen Gatshel Higher Secondary School, Draktsho Vocational Training Centre for Special Children and Youth, and Wangsel Institute for the Deaf. The sessions covered topics such as leadership development, the National Policy for Persons with Disabilities, and the prevention of sexual exploitation and abuse.

Through interactive sessions, group discussions, and practical activities, participants gained valuable knowledge and skills to become confident leaders and stronger advocates for themselves and their communities.

The training also provided a platform for participants to connect, share experiences, and inspire one another to take on leadership roles in promoting inclusion and equal opportunities. Thank you leaders and schools Wangsel Institute for the Deaf and Yangchen Gatshel Higher Secondary School for the support and giving opportunity to your students to be part of our program. Additionally, we would like to extend our appreciation to Nazhoen Lamtoen Prime Minister's Office - PMO, Bhutan (OCASC) and Institute for Learning Solutions for making the trainings productive and fun.
Finally, we express our sincere appreciation to DDI South Asia for all the support that made the sessions a wonderful and useful one.

🌟 Celebration of Draktsho Annual Sports Day coinciding with the 2025 International Day for Persons with Disabilities 🌟

Dec 3, 2025: Draktsho proudly celebrated its Annual Sports Day in honour of the 2025 International Day for Persons with Disabilities, held under this year’s global theme: “Fostering disability-inclusive societies for advancing social progress.”
This theme reflects our shared commitment to building a society where inclusion, respect, and equal opportunity are not aspirations but lived realities.

We were deeply honoured to welcome Ani Pema Deki as our Chief Guest, along with other esteemed guests including the Member Secretary of the CSOA and the Country Director of HELVETAS. Their gracious presence added significance and inspiration to the event.

The day saw vibrant participation as our students engaged in various running events and fun games, showcasing their abilities, confidence, and joyful spirit. The event truly embodied the essence of inclusion and empowerment.

A proud and emotional moment came when our students and teachers offered congratulatory khadar to Ani Pema Deki and Mr. Ugyen Tshering for their outstanding accomplishment in completing "A Women With Altitude" fundraising event. Their achievement stands as a shining example of resilience, determination, and the power of believing in one’s potential.

The celebration began and concluded with a warm cake-cutting ceremony. It was made even more special with our guest and parents through their support and cheering for the students. We extend our heartfelt appreciation to Yarkay for providing the cake and being an important part of today’s celebration.

✨ The Sports Day was not just an event it was a meaningful gathering that highlighted ability, inclusion, unity, and community strength. We extend our sincere gratitude to all our guests, partners, teachers, students, and supporters who made the day truly memorable.

Let us continue fostering disability-inclusive societies for advancing social progress, today and every day.
