Ian Biggs, Australian ambassador to the Islamic Republic of Iran, visited Disability Association of Tavana (DAT), as well as, DAT’s workshops and DAT’s Factory Complex on Tuesday, July 6th, 2017, in order to enhance social cooperation in the areas related to the people who suffer from physical disability, Peyk-e Tavana reported. In his visit to DAT and DAT’s Firouz Hygienic Group, the Australian Ambassador pointed out: “DAT is a successful association and provides [invaluable] services for the people suffering from physical disability.” Highlighting the importance of DAT’s perception which stipulates that “disability is not inability; rather, it is a kind of constraint and, actually, all human beings suffer from constraints in one way or another” Ambassador Biggs said: “This kind of vantage point leaves a favorable effect on the societies’ perception towards physically disabled people.” Ian Biggs appreciated DAT’s efforts in the areas of treatment of disabled people and continued: “Since five years ago, Australia has also initiated its National Insurance of Disabled People and this initiative has paved the way for the employment and education of disabled individuals.” “DAT’s activities have resulted in the creation of self-confidence among the community of Iranian disabled people,” Mr. Biggs added. Australian ambassador also paid a visit to different departments of DAT, including the Audio Library Department (peculiar to blind people), Art Institute of Tavana, and Peyk-e Tavana Monthly Journal. Ian Biggs also visited the DAT’s Factory Complex, Sewing Workshop, Glass Workshop, Baby Crawling Mat Workshop, and Alborz Electronic Industries located in Lia Industrial City.
