Who we are: Action on Disability and Development is an international development agency, supporting organisations of disabled people as they campaign for their rightful inclusion in society. ADD was established in 1985 in recognition of the fact that disabled people, especially disabled women and children, are among the poorest, most disadvantaged and socially excluded. This is particularly true in developing countries, where they are often excluded from development assistance. Since then we have directly supported over 170,000 disabled people and many more indirectly.
