EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Making OPDs Equal Partners of Inclusive Development in Africa program

The Making OPDs Equal Partners of Inclusive Development in Africa is a program funded by NORAD and implemented by the International Disability Alliance and its members from November 2019 till December 2022 in Sub-Saharan Africa. It is part of a series of initiatives led by IDA in Africa, aiming to guarantee that development efforts in Africa adequately include persons with disabilities and their representative organizations, in the frame of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development which offers new political  momentum to address disability issues.


The program is built on three pillars: the strengthening of the disability movement in Sub-Saharan Africa; the development of technical capacity amongst the movement; the development of evidence-based action to support advocacy initiatives at local, national, regional and global level.
