“Outraged by the injustice faced by people with disabilities and vulnerable populations,
we aspire to a world of solidarity and inclusion, enriched by our differences,
where everyone can live in dignity”

Handicap International is changing his name and becomes « Humanity & Inclusion ». HI, Humanity & Inclusion is an independent and impartial aid and development organisation with no religious or political affiliations operating in situations of poverty and exclusion, conflict and disaster. We work alongside people with disabilities and vulnerable people to help meet their essential needs, improve their living conditions and promote respect for their dignity and fundamental rights.

Since the organisation was first founded in 1982, we have set up development programmes in 62 countries and responded to many emergencies. Today we have a budget of around 150 million euros, with 3500 employees worldwide.

HI is engaged in an employment policy in favour of disabled workers.

For further information about the association: www.hi.org.

 

CONTEXT:

In both humanitarian and development contexts, HI projects aim to focus on the ‘most vulnerable’; including people and groups discriminated against or those at high risk of discrimination. But trying to identify which people are ‘the most vulnerable’ and why and designing appropriate project responses can be challenging. HI has identified nine key factors which intersect, to understanding different people’s experiences, capacities, needs and vulnerabilities. These are: disability, age, gender, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, geographical location, ethnic origin, religion, political opinion. Out of these nine factors, HI has prioritized Disability, Gender and Age.

In 2019 HI launched the Disability, Gender and Age (DGA) Policy and guidance document including a DGA marker. HI committed to deepen its work on an AGD Intersectional approach and launched in 2020 an Intersectional Resource ‘Towards More Inclusive Practices: A Disability, Gender & Age Intersectional Resource’.

To this end, HI has also developed a project aiming to strengthen the DGA intersectional approach through the participatory development and dissemination of tools in order to increase the capacity of actors to design and implement interventions for quality prevention, mitigation and response to violence. This project aims to provide clarity and programmatic guidance for project staff to take an intersectional approach when designing and implementing projects to make sure they are more responsive to the differing priorities, opportunities and barriers faced by beneficiaries. Both global level actors as well as actors in Myanmar and Ethiopia will be targeted.
