[www.keralites.net] UNESCO pat for disabled-friendly parks in Bangalore - Kavitha Krishnamoorthy, founder of Kilikili

 

Kavitha Krishnamoorthy, founder of Kilikili ( which in Kannada means the warbling laughter of a child ) : - changing the face of public parks in Bangalore making them accessible for disabled children.
UNESCO pat for disabled-friendly parks in Bangalore : - When a group of parents with differently abled children came together in 2005 to lobby for parks and playgrounds in the city be made accessible to such  children, they faced an uphill task.

They were not sure if the move would work. But some six years later, the initiative is being lauded by UNESCO as a success story, that can be emulated the world over.
