Project Outcomes

Persons with disabilities access inclusive/existing programs and services in target areas

Project Goal

Persons with disabilities claim their rights and exert influence on matters that affect their lives

Brief Project background including achievements

Though councilors for Persons with Disabilities are required to represent the needs of Persons with Disabilities, their capacity to deliver on their mandate remains limited. This could be due to many factors including but not limited to induction about their roles and the means of participation in the Local Government process, limited facilitation for their participation in council meetings, among others.

NUDIPU is therefore implementing a program aimed at enhancing the capacity of councilors of Persons with Disabilities to deliver on their mandate.

Areas of implementation: Country Wide
Time frame; 2020-2024

Phase two: April 2019- April 2022.
