We could not do the work without the support of our donors and partners.

Light for the World is a global disability & development organization, breaking down barriers to enrich society and unlock the potential in all of us. We enable crucial eye health services and empower people with disabilities in some of the poorest regions of the world. We focus on the poorest and hardest to reach because those people need it most. We create change through local people, organisations and governments because we want our impact to last. We try new things because we believe in the power of innovation! We work with partners because we cannot do it alone. We work with partners and underserved communities around the world in countries including Burkina Faso, Democratic Republic of Congo, Ethiopia, Mozambique and South Sudan. Our work is made possible with support from donors in countries including Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Germany, Netherlands, Switzerland, United Kingdom and USA.

CBR Africa Network (CAN) is an independent Non-Governmental Organisation that facilitates information sharing on disability, CBR and inclusive development within Africa and across the World. It is the African regional affiliate of the CBR Global Network. CAN’s niche is information sharing to facilitate learning and improvement in service delivery for PWDs; and it is a key tool for inclusive development. This is important in the bid to realise equalization of opportunities, social integration and rehabilitation of PWDs in Africa. CAN was established in 2001 following resolutions made at the 1^st CBR Africa Regional Conference: ‘CBR as a participatory strategy in Africa’. CAN aims to facilitate the sharing of information about community-based services for PWDs and their families in African countries. Prior to CAN’s establishment there was very little information readily available about CBR to facilitate policy and decision-making processes by stakeholders. Due to the oral tradition that dominates the communication process in Africa, there was minimal evidence of documentation and sharing of CBR experiences. This undermined the progress of CBR in the rehabilitation of PWDs, as good practices were not shared and programmes remained unevaluated. It was a threat, especially in African countries, which had embraced the CBR approach and yet lacked the documented evidence to expressively defend the strategy.

The International Disability and Development Consortium (IDDC) and its members aim to promote inclusive development. Inclusive development means respecting the full human rights of every person, acknowledging diversity, eradicating poverty and ensuring that all people are fully included and can actively participate in development processes and activities regardless of age, gender, disability, state of health, ethnic origin or any other characteristic.

DCDD is the Dutch platform that promotes disability inclusion in international cooperation. We believe in the power of inclusion. When people with disabilities are included in all social, economic and political spheres of life, everybody gains. Right now, people with disabilities around the world face many physical obstacles, communication barriers, inadequate laws, policies and negative stereotypes. Change is needed. We are here for everyone who wants to make inclusion happen! Inclusion works!
