1. Chapter 1 Introduction -- 2. Chapter 2 Situating the Disabled Person in Burkina Faso -- 3. Chapter 3 Grassroots DPOs and the Disability Movement? -- 4. Chapter 4 INGOs: Saviours or Stop-Gap Solutions? -- 5. Chapter 5 Identities and Perceptions: ‘Something that is Missing’? -- 6. Chapter 6 Agency and Independence: ‘It is not the end of the world!’ -- 7. Chapter 7 Disabled People in Development: What Future?.

This book builds upon critiques of development in the disability domain by investigating the necessity and implications of theorising disability from the Global South and how development policies and practices pertaining to disabled people in such contexts might be improved by engaging with their voices and agency. The author focuses on the lived experiences of disabled people in Burkina Faso, while situating these experiences, where necessary, in the wider national and regional contexts. She explores development agencies’ interventions with disabled people and the need to re-think these practices and ideologies which are often framed within western contexts. This work will appeal to policy makers, NGOs, academics, students and researchers in the fields of development and disability studies. Lara Bezzina is an independent researcher, activist, practitioner and consultant working in the fields of disability and development. She works with various NGOs in Malta and internationally and is a visiting lecturer at the University of Malta, Malta. .
