ADD International's vision is of a world where all disabled people are able to enjoy their rights, fulfil their responsibilities and obligations and participate as fully as they choose at every level of society.

ADD supports organisations of disabled people in Africa and Asia to influence policy and practice to end social exclusion and poverty. 

 

Auction of Promises

ADD is holding an Auction of Promises in order to bring us a step closer to achieving our goal of equal rights for disabled people in Africa and Asia.

Promises ranging from a beauty makeover to a flight in a private plane will go under the hammer in order to raise vital funds for disabled people in Africa and Asia, who are amongst the hardest hit by the economic crisis.
