This
paper
discusses
the
concept
of
disability,
its
prevalence
and
incidence.
It
highlights
on
the
importance
of
prevalence
and
incidence
and
provides
prevalence
of
various
disabilities
in
the
country.
The
paper
also
discusses
the
concept
of
gender
in
relation
to
education
of
people
with
disabilities
in
Tanzania.
From
the
discussions
it
is
apparent
that
there
are
more
males
than
females
with
disabilities
in
Tanzania.
The
situation
may
be
due
to
some
bias
in
determining
prevalence
of
disabilities.
The
bias
may
result
from
the
fact
that
boys
are
biologically
vulnerable
than
males.
Girls
with
disabilities
in
Tanzania
have
not
had
equal
access
to
education
compared
to
boys,
especially
at
higher
institutions
of
learning.
Some
of
the
reasons
advanced
for
the
imbalances
may
be.
due
to
negative
attitudes
towards
people
with
disabilities,
lack
of
role
models,
as
well
as
lack
of
teaching-learning
materials,
and
inaccessibility
to
educational
buildings.
It
is
recommended
that
parents
and
the
Tanzanian
community
in
general,
be
made
aware
of
the
education
of
children
with
disabilities;
and
that
role
models
be
nsed
to
motivate
parents
to
enrol
their
children
with
disabilities
in
school
and
make
sure
they
graduate
