NSCISA has been working in the field of disability and social development for past 16 years. The
organization was founded by persons with Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) with the objective of promoting the
rights, inclusion, and empowerment of persons with disabilities. In its early phase, NSCISA primarily
focused on advocating for the rights of persons with SCI and promoting sports as a means of
rehabilitation and social inclusion.
NSCISA pioneered wheelchair sports in Nepal and has since organized numerous national-level
tournaments in wheelchair basketball, wheelchair table tennis, chess, and swimming for persons with
disabilities. Through these initiatives, the organization has significantly contributed to promoting sports,
leadership, and confidence among persons with disabilities.
In addition to sports, NSCISA is currently actively engaged in advocacy, awareness raising, capacity
development, and livelihood promotion for persons with disabilities. Through its integrated approach, the
organization aims to enhance social inclusion, dignity, and equal opportunities for persons with
disabilities across Nepal.
