The Biological Park at Chidiyatapu, in collaboration with the Education Department of the Andaman and Nicobar Administration, today marked the International Day of Persons with Disabilities by hosting a specially curated educational and recreational programme for children with special needs from schools across the Islands.
Ms. Meera Nambiar, Deputy Director of the Biological Park, addressed the gathering and extended appreciation to the participating institutions. She reaffirmed the Park’s commitment to promoting inclusive learning environments.
“International Day of Persons with Disabilities reminds us of our collective responsibility to create environments where every child feels welcomed, respected, and valued,” she said.
More than 219 children, along with teachers and caregivers, participated in the programme. The event included guided wildlife tours conducted by the Park’s executive staff and interactive awareness sessions crafted to ensure a safe, engaging, and enriching experience for the young participants.
The tranquil natural environment of the Biological Park provided the perfect backdrop for the children to explore wildlife and better understand the island ecosystem in an inclusive and supportive setting.
