Aims and Objectives

DysNet is run by EDRIC (European Dysmelia Reference information Centre), an organisation set up by a group of Thalidomiders from across Europe. 

The DysNet project is a way to preserve the knowledge they have gained over the years, that has enabled them not only to lead independent lives but, in many cases, to achieve things that most able-bodies people would find difficult. 

It is in this 'can-do' spirit that the ambitious aims of DysNet, to share knowledge, signposting and experiences, have been established.
