The consortium

We’re specialists and global leaders in disability and development from more than 20 international organisations.

We’re funded by UK aid and USAID and work with the public and private sectors, people with disabilities and the organisations representing them to ensure there are equal opportunities for everyone and a global future that’s disability inclusive.
