∎ DISABILITY: ENSURING NO ONE IS LEFT BEHIND
∎ Disabled people living in poverty are among the most vulnerable, marginalised and discriminated people on earth. Often, they have no access to basic human rights, education or the opportunity to work. There are approximately 1 billion disabled people in the world according to the World Health Organisation, 80% live in developing countries - and around 150 million have very high levels of need. Shockingly small numbers of disabled children go to school leading to low literacy and low employment, and, for most disabled people, even basic health services are inaccessible. Disabled people are frequently discriminated against, stigmatised, and excluded from wider society - even by their own families.
∎ After many years of relentless campaigning, we are now beginning to see the global political will, high profile champions and relevant policies that are needed to respect the rights of disabled people around the world. ADD International has been at the heart of this global movement, ensuring that the voices of disabled people grow ever louder.

Based in the UK, we have 5 offices in East Africa and Asia with a staff team of approximately 70 people and a turnover of over £3m.
∎ We are a disability rights organisation with 35 years of experience. We fight for independence, equality and opportunity for disabled people living in poverty in Africa and Asia. We believe it is not the impairment, but the barriers in society, that limit people from reaching their full potential. We work in areas of extreme poverty alongside disabled people`s organisations run by disability activists at a local and national level, supporting them with the tools and resources to build powerful movements for change.
∎ ADD International is an ally to the global disability movement and we partner with disabled people`s organisations and disability activists in Africa and Asia to help them access the tools, resources and support they need to build powerful movements for change. Movements that will achieve a vision of a world where all disabled people are free from discrimination and oppression and have full equality within an inclusive society.
