- equality and opportunities for disabled people living in poverty. 1billion people worldwide are disabled. 80% of them live in the developing world. Disabled people living in poverty are among the most vulnerable, marginalised and discriminated people on the planet. Often, they have no access to basic human rights, such as dignity and respect, education, and the opportunity to work.

This is why ADD is here. Our aim is to achieve positive and lasting change in the lives of disabled people, especially those living in poverty.

We support local partners in Africa and Asia and help them form projects, by providing information, training, mentoring and funding.
