OLOPC Aqaba organized a training program about the rights of persons with disabilities to the local institutions and parents of persons with disabilities.

Dr. Nabil Kharman Vice President of Central Committee for Our Lady of Peace Centre spoke on the importance of those workshops and the role they play in raising the awareness and capacities for the participants from the Special Education Centers and parents. He also focused on Jordan's commitment after signing the International Convention for People with Disabilities and lunching the Law for People with Disabilities Right, which is considered a clear path to guarantee the rights for this group.

This is reflected in the OLOPC programs and philosophy since 2001 in supporting the rights of people with disabilities through awareness campaigns, training workshops and public marches.

The training session included a discussion of the rights of persons with disabilities Act No. 31 of 2007, the National Strategy for Persons with Disabilities, the International Convention on the rights of persons with disabilities, and discussions between coaches and parents of persons with disabilities.
