Stories of organisational change: how our partners are putting disability inclusion into practice
Inclusive Futures brings together international development and humanitarian aid organisations with varying experience in disability inclusion.
A key aim of the initiative is to improve how partners approach and practise disability inclusive programming.
BRAC, BBC Media Action and SDDirect joined Inclusive Futures as mainstream development organisations that did not specialise in disability programming. In this blog series, we capture what they have learned through collaborating with organisations of people with disabilities and other partners, and how they have adapted to be more inclusive.

SDDirect
“Once we started to work on Inclusive Futures, there was a real feeling that if we were going to talk the talk, we had to walk the walk – we needed to step up what we were doing internally.”
