Inclusive Friends Association (IFA) recently launched their website, reflecting their ongoing commitment to advancing the rights of Persons with Disabilities (PWD) across Africa, particularly in Nigeria. IFA is a woman-led, non-profit organization that focuses on inclusion, advocacy, and capacity building for PWDs. Their initiatives span multiple thematic areas, including economic empowerment, democracy and good governance, humanitarian efforts, and inclusive education.
This launch comes at a crucial time as IFA continues its advocacy for the implementation of disability-focused legislation, inclusive education, and improved access to economic opportunities for PWDs. Their latest programs also emphasize the importance of data-driven approaches, using research to create actionable insights that influence national and subnational policies. Additionally, the organization seeks to empower individuals and institutions to drive systemic change for the inclusion of people with disabilities in all spheres of life.
Their core values—passion, innovation, accountability, technology, and sustainability—underscore their commitment to ensuring that PWDs can lead dignified and fulfilling lives.
