People with Disablility

Why

• India has more than 20 million people with physical or learning disabilities and many of them live in poverty because they lack access to education and employment.
• Only one 1% out of 5 million (15-35 years) Persons with Disabilities are employed
• Discrimination and sterotyping continues to be a major challenge
• Poor infrastructure that cannot accommodate disabled adjustments
• 70% of the disabled population live in rural areas
• 32% have basic literacy and only 13% have secondary and above education

How

We support young people with disabilities to gain skills in line with industry requirements. The program also integrates the promotion of an inclusive workforce by sensitizing employers to shift the focus from “disability” to “ability” when recruiting people with disabilities.
Our Approach

• Incentivise companies and organisations to employ more people with disabilities, ensuring employers have access to advice when they need it.
• Acknowledgement that people with disabilites are equal and worthy contributors to society and as an employee
• Promotes inclusiveness and nuturing a diverse workforce
• Realisation of independence and better self-esteem
