Welcome to CREATE

CREATE is a non-government organisation based in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa which focuses on advocacy for disability rights and community based rehabilitation in its broadest sense. We provide a variety of training courses on issues related to disability and community based rehabilitation, including developing materials for this training. We work with disabled people's organisations, communities and government departments to advocate for implementation of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Read more...
