Disability Challenge | Nesan Hirmiz | TEDxBaghdad

Every human being should set a goal for his life, since there is a life there will be hope, commitment, continuation and community consolidation. Dealing with life in a natural way combined with my trust in god and myself let me overcome disability. Nesan Hirmiz is a civil and human rights activist who was left without lower limbs and bound to a wheelchair after a war-related injury. He was able to find solace and healing in sports, and he joined the Iraqi national team for wheelchair basketball and subsequently the national team for swimming. He won several local competitions and became an active participant in various training and referee programs. Despite the difficulties posed by his disability and being the sole provider for his family, Nesan was determined to prove himself in the work field. He opened a small workshop for wheelchair repair, which has now expanded to serve hundreds of disabled Iraqis daily. Nesan is an exemplary model of how anyone can excel through patience, strength, and faith. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
