The Global Disability Innovation Hub, as part of the AT2030 programme funded by UK International Development, is conducting a research study titled: “State of Disability Inclusion in Local Climate Action and Pathways for Transformation.”

We are currently seeking participants for online interviews to support this important research.

Who We’re Looking For

We invite expressions of interest from:

  • Organisations of Persons with Disabilities (OPDs) (priority group)
  • Disability activists and advocates
  • Disability-focused NGOs
  • Experts in inclusive urban development and climate action

Nairobi, Warsaw, Columbia (USA), Toronto, London, Wellington, Buenos Aires, Kuala Lumpur, Durban, Dhaka, Mumbai, Lisbon, Dakar, Amman, Amsterdam, Port Moresby, Honiara

We particularly welcome individuals with lived experience of disability. We are especially interested in hearing from women with disabilities, who are often underrepresented in climate action planning despite facing disproportionate impacts.
