AUTISM AWARENESS<br />
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and<br />
autism are both general terms for<br />
a group of complex disorders of<br />
brain development. These disorders are characterized,<br />
in varying degrees, by difficulties<br />
in social interaction, verbal and nonverbal<br />
communication and repetitive behaviours.<br />
ASD can be associated with intellectual disability,<br />
difficulties in motor coordination<br />
and attention, and physical health issues.<br />
Autism appears to have its roots in very early<br />
brain development. However, the most obvious<br />
signs of autism and symptoms of autism<br />
tend to emerge between two and three years<br />
of age. Studies also show that autism is three<br />
to four times more common among boys<br />
than girls.<br />
More children will be diagnosed with autism<br />
this year than with childhood cancer, juvenile<br />
diabetes or pediatric AIDS combined. ASD affects<br />
an estimated three million individuals<br />
in the U.S. and tens of millions worldwide.<br />
Moreover, government autism statistics suggest<br />
that prevalence rates have increased<br />
10 to 17 per cent annually in recent years.<br />
There is no established explanation for this<br />
continuing increase. It is not known whether<br />
this is due to an increasing rate of the illness<br />
or an increased ability to diagnose the illness,<br />
which has included newer definitions<br />
of autism.<br />
Each individual with autism is unique. Many<br />
of those on the autism spectrum have exceptional<br />
abilities in visual skills, music, math,<br />
art and academic skills. About 40 per cent<br />
have average to above average intellectual<br />
abilities. Indeed, many persons on the spectrum<br />
take deserved pride in their distinctive<br />
abilities and “atypical” ways of viewing the<br />
world. Others with autism have significant<br />
disabilities and are unable to live independently.<br />
About 25 per cent of individuals with<br />
ASD are nonverbal but can learn to communicate<br />
using other means.<br />
The overall mission of autism organizations<br />
is to support people affected by autism and<br />
their families to improve the lives of those on<br />
the autism spectrum. For some, this means<br />
the development and delivery of more effective<br />
treatments that can address significant<br />
challenges in communication and physical<br />
health. For others, it means increasing acceptance,<br />
respect and support.<br />

Throughout its history, the <strong>United</strong> <strong>Nations</strong><br />
family has promoted the human rights and<br />
well-being of people with disabilities. In<br />
that spirit, the world should recognize<br />
the courage of children and adults with<br />
autism as they confront their challenges<br />
with determination, creativity and hope.<br />
Let us empower them and respond to their<br />
needs today, so as to make our societies<br />
more accessible and fulfilling for all<br />
people tomorrow.<br />

Depuis sa création, le système des<br />
<strong>Nations</strong> Unies s’emploie à promouvoir<br />
les droits de l’homme et le bien-être des<br />
personnes handicapées. À cet égard, il<br />
importe de reconnaître dans le monde<br />
entier le courage dont font preuve les<br />
enfants et adultes autistes, qui surmontent<br />
leur handicap avec détermination,<br />
créativité et espoir. Favorisons leur<br />
autonomie et répondons à leurs besoins<br />
dès à présent afin que, demain, nos<br />
sociétés permettent l’intégration et<br />
l’épanouissement de chacun.<br />

Seit ihrem Bestehen fördern die Vereinten<br />
Nationen das Wohl und die Rechte von<br />
Menschen mit Behinderungen. In diesem<br />
Geiste sollte die Welt den Mut autistischer<br />
Kinder und Erwachsener anerkennen,<br />
die ihren täglichen Herausforderungen<br />
mit Entschlossenheit, Kreativität und<br />
Hoffnung entgegentreten. Indem wir<br />
heute diese Menschen stärken und auf<br />
ihre Bedürfnisse eingehen, schaffen wir<br />
eine Gesellschaft der Zukunft, die allen<br />
Menschen Möglichkeiten und Erfüllung<br />
bietet.<br />
