Bangladesh: Schizophrenia and autism treatment, services, and societal attitudes

Government support

  • “Although the government of Bangladesh has provided financial support to some portions of persons with disabilities, according to newspaper and government websites [14]. Yet, it has not shown much support in academic activities in special educational institutions during this pandemic time. The government is not able to run special educational institutions in the same vein. Special education schools are different from one to another in Bangladesh. The process of inclusive education has begun, but it may take a long time to be implemented.”
