What We Do

PWDs Members Mobilization and Trainings

PWDs members’ mobilization and trainings are conducted targeting DPOs members and other community based organizations (CBOs) opinion leaders, youth groups, women groups and law enforcement officers. Given the inequality in access to and control over resources against PWDs, lack of confidence and prevalent illiteracy among PWDs, lack of involvement of PWDs in leadership and decision-making positions, trainings and workshops are conducted to pursue PWDs awareness focusing on their empowerment.

Specific activities for advocacy and networking includes trainings, workshops, promoting creation of and participation in forums for exchange of ideas, information, among others.
