Welcome to Workability Asia
Workability Asia (WAsia) was created in 2004 as a regional group of Workability International (WI). Workability International was set up in 1987.
Work and employment are one of the key issues addressed in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Through employment, Persons with Disabilities earn a living, build high self-esteem and increase participation in the community. United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific reports that approximately 650 million persons with disabilities live in Asia and the Pacific. This number is expected to rise over the next decades due to population aging, natural disasters, and other factors. Most live in poverty and have less economic participation. Jobs and employment are one of the best means of overcoming poverty.
