ICT for People with Disability in Nepal
Information and Communication Technology (ICT) plays a crucial role in empowering individuals with disabilities by providing access to information, communication, and services. Despite obstacles such as geographical limitations and affordability issues, developing ICT specifically tailored for different categories of persons with disabilities, like those with hemophilia, can enhance accessibility and support their educational and healthcare needs. Online platforms, discussion forums, and specialized apps can offer valuable resources and support for individuals facing challenges due to their disabilities, such as hemophilia.

People with hemophilia do not bleed faster than other people, and will not bleed to death from a minor cut or injury. The main problem for people with hemophilia is bleeding internally, mainly into muscles and joints.
What are the signs of hemophilia? Big bruises Bleeding into muscles and joints, especially the knees, elbow, and ankles Spontaneous bleeding (sudden bleeding inside the body for no clear reason) Bleeding for a long time after getting a cut, removing a tooth, or having surgery Serious internal bleeding into vital organs, most commonly after a serious trauma
