Within the project "Raising voices, creating opportunities- II" funded by USAID, ACDC in collaboration with the Project Management Unit and the Department of Transport of Thua Thien Hue province organized "Training on disability equality and skills in working with persons with disabilities for managers, taxi/bus drivers, and bus assistants". The training course has attracted the participation of more than 30 drivers, driving assistants, and their managers in the province.

"When the commune officer sent out invitations to training, I intended not to go because I thought I had such a disability to do something inconvenient and embarrassing to everyone. Unexpectedly, when I came here, I heard that persons with disabilities (PWD) can also live independently, can also integrate; able to do some things with support and a favorable environment, I feel more confident. If there are training courses on PWD in the future, I would also like to continue to participate." – Mr. N.V.K - Person with disabilities in Tra Son commune, Bac Tra My district said with emotion.
