Introduction	After working with a few disabled centres in Cambodia and Vietnam I started to question what the development sector is doing to help this group of marginalised people. My experiences drove me to start researching this further, the more I dug the more I realised very little is being done. This blog aims to explore why this has been the case and to discuss ideas about how to tackle this in the development sector. By making people aware of the realities which disabled people face in the developing world we can begin to start discussion of including disabled people in development policies. If you enjoy what I have written or even better would like to discuss this, please leave comments or email me. Most importantly please spread the word, this issue has been left in the dark for far too long.
