Disability & Women Development Strategies (DWDS) seeks to improve the status and quality of life of women and girls with disabilities in Africa through their own organisations. DWDS supports and encourages grassroots, national and regional organisations of women with disabilities to engage in empowering activities that promote dignity, unity, inclusion and equality.

  • DWDS is motivated by the existing international and national human rights instruments that seek to protect and promote rights and dignity of every individual.
  • DWDS envisages a barrier free society where every woman and girl with disability enjoys full human rights: being recognized, fully included and respected.
  • DWDS works to compliment the efforts of governments, faith institutions, organisations for the disabled, women's organisations, and other civil agencies to achieve the changes that we envision.
