Disability in Wales and Africa (DWA) has a vision of societies where disabled people are full, equal, and participatory members of their community in Wales, and particularly in Africa.  In the past the needs of disabled people, and their families, have often been sidelined within mainstream development, with actors believing it to be a specialist, standalone, issue.

DWA believes that disability should be part of every development initiative and that:

“Disabled People’s Participation Should Be Expected, Not Just Accepted.”
