Description :
Ahmad is a person with a disability who participated in the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) Career Development Programme (CDP) in 2020.
He is a wheelchair basketball player with a lower limb deficiency and has a real passion for sport. He needed some time off of his job at a butcher shop in order to participate in a national basketball tournament in Lebanon. His manager was inflexible with Ahmad’s request for a few days off and fired him, leaving him without a job and putting Ahmad in a difficult situation because his family depended on him for his job’s income.
When Ahmad enrolled in the CDP, he was still struggling to find new employment. Thanks to the training and support of this programme, Ahmad is now the proud owner of his very own bakery and is autonomous in supporting himself and his family through his new job.
