People living with disabilities in rural KwaZulu-Natal have very little access to information about their rights which is making their lives more difficult.
Some disabled people living in rural KwaZulu-Natal have no idea about their rights even though government and the media constantly report on this issue.
That is according to Dudu Mazibuko, who was disabled by polio and lives in Embo informal settlement in the lower reaches of the Tugela Valley near the town of Mandeni.
It also has one of the highest levels of HIV and TB in South Africa and the local medical services are stretched to the limit in the region as Covid-19 ravages the province. At the same time, people living with disabilities here say information about their rights is hard to access.
