Health and prevention

Good health is an essential part of a person's wellbeing and independence. Whether improving access to local health services, working to prevent the causes of disability, or providing psychological support to the survivors of violence and war, all HI's actions serve one purpose: to ensure that everyone, including disabled people, has equal access to information, health services and care.

Our mission

Humanity & Inclusion is a global leader on inclusive health, working to ensure no one is left behind, especially persons with disabilities. Through an approach grounded in human rights, we advocate for quality, person-centred services that are accessible to those facing different types of discrimination. We combine direct programming with technical assistance to strengthen inclusive health systems, humanitarian coordination, and global policy frameworks at international, regional and national levels. Through community-based solutions, inclusive services, and partnerships with local organisations, we create environments where everyone can access the care they need and live with dignity.

HOW TO HELP

Humanity & Inclusion knows from experience that an artificial limb alone doesn’t change the life of an amputee. Our approach to rehabilitation is based on the recognition of individual needs, taking into account a person’s individual situation, their environment and the local services available.

Emergencies

Humanity & Inclusion’s emergency response teams take action on the ground to assist the most vulnerable, in particular people with disabilities, injured and displaced people.
