Integrated Disabled Women Activities (IDIWA), is an NGO empowering women and girls with disabilities to maximize their potential and improve lives in Uganda.
#Inclusion starts with #Understanding and #Action. Through targeted training on #ReasonableAccommodation, we're equipping Business Development Service Providers to deliver inclusive services, from the #classroom to the #Clinic to the #workplace. #InclusiveSociety



We celebrate the #Strength, #voice, #Dreams and the unapologetic presence of #GYWDs in every space. Defined not by #Limitations, but #Courage, #Resilience, #Creativity, and #Leadership. #Disability is not a #Weakness, it is part of #Unique identity and a source of pride.
From #Stigma to #Strength: We Celebrate #disabilitypride. #Disability is not a limitation, it's part of #HumanDiversity. #Pride means #Visibility, #Dignity, and #Belonging. We stand for #Accessibility, #Equality, and #empowerment. #DisabilityPrideMonth #NothingAboutUsWithoutUs

#Genderjustice is not a #women issue, it’s everyone’s #fight. To achieve true #Equality and #Equity, #MenandBoys must be part of the journey, not just as #Allies but #Partners in dismantling harmful #Norms, challenging #injustice to strengthen the path towards #Inclusion.



#Equality means giving everyone the same #opportunities. #Equity means recognizing their different realities. Let's push for policies, programs, and spaces that acknowledge the needs, value of #GirlsandYoungWomenwithDisabilities. #WeLead #SheLeads

Audience Comments: ▶️Our early Lira Inclusion Workshops helped us hear directly from those at the margins; what exclusion feels like, what power-sharing could look like. ▶️We must continue to amplify these voices; not as beneficiaries, but as leaders, narrators, and co-creators.

#WomenandGirlswithDisabilities must be meaningfully included in #Planning and #Budgetin processes, not as #Tokens, but as #Experts of their #LivedExperiences. When #SheLeadsinPlanning, policies become people-centered. When #SheShapes the #Budget, systems become #Just. #SheLeads
With #Dignity and #Courage, #GirlsandYoungWomenwithDisabilities are transforming #painintopower, fear into #leadership and #exclusionintoaction. #SheLeads #inclusionmatters
From silence to strength, from pain to power #WomenandGirlswithDisabilities are rising. Their stories of survival are not just about enduring #Violence but #Transforming #Systems, #Communities, and futures. #SheLeads #InclusionMatters
Focusing on international frameworks- the #UNCRPD, #UDHR, and #SDGs, #WGDs #HumanRightsDefenders from both #Iganga, and #Bugiri are undertaking a #training to strengthening their capacity to better understand their #Rights and strengthen their #Protection. #HumanRightsforAll




As part of our strategy to #Accelerate access to #HIV, #TB & #Malaria services, we’re engaging #HealthCare providers & #LocalGovernment to #Advocate for #Inclusive, #Coordinated & #DisabilityResponsive #Healthcare. Together, we aim to uphold the #Dignity of #WGDs.
