Kurdistan Organization for Rehabilitation of the Disabled (KORD) has been established in 2004 and officially registered with the Ministry of Relations and Cooperation as a local NGO.

The programme has developed a deep and broadly recognized expertise in the support to the physical and psycho-social rehabilitation for war and mine victims and other people with lower limb disabilities/handicaps.
