 note = {We conducted field research on rehabilitation in Lao People' s Democratic Republic (Laos) from 28th
August to 2nd September 200I. The purpose of this study was to clarify issues relating to rehabilitation, and to
discuss problems for future cooperation.
It is estimated that there are approximately 250,000 people with a disability in Laos,7-1O% of the total
population. Amputation caused by unexploded bombs and mines was reported as one of the most cemncnly
accuring of disabilities in Laos. There were serious problem at village level, which were a shortage of experts
such as doctors and physical therapists, and the difficulty of acess to villagers for rehabilitation services.
The Japan International Cooperation Agency dispatched a physical therapist as a Senior Volunteer to the
College of Health Technology, a three-year system, in order to cooperate in constructing a curriculum for a
four-year system. Furthermore a physical therapist was dispatched to the National Medical Rehabilitation
Center as Japan Overseas Cooperation Volunteers.
Community Based Rehabilitation would be needed to develop rehabilitation in villages. Therefore, we
consider that the teaching of Community Based Rehabilitation to local physical therapists would be necessary
in future.},
