| dc.description.abstract | As evidences show, substantial number of people with disabilities lives in Ethiopia. Though the number of people with disabilities is significant, disability inclusiveness in different services and opportunities is negligible. This study aims to explore disability inclusiveness in Ethiopian Broadcasting Corporation in respect to employment opportunity, disability issue coverage, attribution of disabled sources, and accessibility of built environments. To do so, qualitative research method is preferred and the data were collected through depth interviews, focus group discussions and from secondary sources. Twelve journalists and media representatives participated on the indepth interviews and 2 FGDs were held with twelve members each. Generally the data collected through these techniques divulge that implementation of disability inclusiveness is minimal in the Corporation. To put specifically the finding regarding employment reveals that PWDs are seldom employed in the organization. Concerning disability issue coverage, the findings clearly confirm that disability issues were covered rarely. The other finding points out that the views of people with disabilities as a group or individually is rarely attributed in stories dealing with common interest issues. This is due to lack of awareness of representatives & journalists. | en_US |
