We take our role seriously
As the largest organisation in the world caring for people with disabilities we take our responsibility very seriously.
We recognise that we are often the loudest voice advocating on behalf of people who may not be able to speak out for themselves.
While aid agencies have made progress in the battle against poverty, children and adults with disabilities are often overlooked, even forgotten.
Right now,CBM Australia has the opportunity to take the lead on disability in our region.
CBM has world-class professional skills in disability-related program design and implementation and therefore has an enormous opportunity to contribute in this area.
We've joined with other organisations to form the CBM-initiated Australian Disability and Development Consortium to help coordinate national advocacy, information sharing,best practice and networking activities with the broad aim of maximising disability inclusion in Australian development activities.
