organisations of persons with disabilities

Organisations of persons with disabilities are groups formed by individuals with disabilities to advocate for their rights, promote inclusion, and improve services and opportunities. They serve as a collective voice to influence policies, raise awareness, and support members’ needs. These organizations often provide resources, education, and community connections, empowering members to participate fully in society. They work to eliminate barriers—physical, social, or attitudinal—ensuring people with disabilities can access education, employment, and social activities with dignity and independence.
