What is Inclusive Futures?

Inclusive Futures is UK aid’s flagship disability-inclusive development consortium initiative, led by Sightsavers and the International Disability Alliance. Together, we’re addressing the global gap in evidence about what works, and what doesn’t, to deliver transformative change.

Since 2018, we’ve worked with more than 100 organisations of persons with disabilities to transform the lives of more than 3.5 million people with disabilities and reached more than 15.5 million others through our work.
