In order to achieve meaningful structural change that leads to the successful achievement of inclusive equality.

It is our responsibility to act collectively. To turn the challenges that people with disabilities face into opportunities, and create a world that gives them the voice, choice and control over the decisions that affect their lives. A world in which individuals are not seen through their disabilities; but through their capabilities. 

Be part of the drive to build this community and join us at the Doha International Conference on Disability and Development (DICDD) from 7–8 December 2019.

Take an active role in shaping a world that grants people with disabilities, equal employment, equal education, and all-encompassing equal rights.
