Partnership & Solidarity

Through digital partnerships and engagements online we were able to collaborate and amplify partner content, tagging allied organizations like Consortium of Disabled Persons Organization in Kenya( CDPOK) National Gender and Equality Commision (NGEC) Kenya National Human Rights Commision(. These efforts enhanced collective visibility for disability inclusion issues and strengthened solidarity within the disability movement and allied civil society spaces.

  • LESSON LEARNT
    • Persons with Disabilities are ready for fresh ideas because in most part of the North they have limited access to information when it comes to technology
    • Alot of Organisations undertaking community development, governance, among others have by ignorance made disability invisible e.g humanitarian interventions. Disability disappears within the wider framework of GESI (Gender and Social inclusion) framework
    • Putting persons with disabilities at the frontline accelerates the gains envisaged in the project - champions idea.

Change in the operating context

There is now a Policy for Disability in Kenya, for the first time and a new Act- Persons with Disabilities 2025 that provides a window of bigger opportunities to accelerate the achievements of our results e.g the National Council For Persons with Disability(NCPWD) is now empowered to issue adjustment orders to organizations that are not accessible. This will boost our project as far as technology and adjustment orders are concerned.
