Globally, persons with disabilities are excluded from educational opportunities, as only 10% can attend school, and only 5% complete primary school. In Pakistan, the situation can be much dire.

As a result, a vast majority of persons with disabilities also remain excluded from the benefits associated with education, such as better jobs, social and economic security, and opportunities for full participation in society. Considering this, skills development or vocational training is a viable option that can supplement and boost persons with disabilities in the economic arena.
