Abstract
There is no real agreement on how to evaluate community-based rehabilitation (CBR) programmes. Many diverse methods have been used. This qualitative study aimed to describe the change in quality of life of children with cerebral palsy and their carers as perceived by the carers themselves and some of the children. The study was conducted at the ART CBR programme that operates in the city of Dar es Salaam in Tanzania.
