According to the study, there is a misperception about people with disabilities because they are not allowed to participate, they don't have anything unique to contribute to the creation process (9(18%), and they are unable to take part in development initiatives on an equal footing with others (11(22%). For the purpose of fostering a greater knowledge of disability issues, inclusive procedures, and the particular difficulties and requirements experienced by youth with disabilities, government officials should offer training and education opportunities to YLP staff and other interested parties. This will help to foster a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere within the context of the course.
