Founder
We are a women-led foundation advancing the rights and opportunities of persons with disabilities, with a special focus on women and girls. Our work began by helping children with disabilities return to school and has grown into a movement for dignity and equal participation.
Through education, health, economic empowerment and humanitarian action, we create barrier-breaking pathways so persons with disabilities can participate fully in society.
Together with partners and communities, individual empowerment becomes community change and lasting inclusion.
