CBM About

Why do we exist

We exist to build an inclusive India in which all persons with disabilities enjoy their human rights and achieve their full potential.

With over 50 years of experience working alongside people with disabilities in poorest communities across India, we strive to remove the barriers that marginalise people with disabilities. We do this by working directly with people with disabilities, other disadvantaged populations, partner organisations, influencing policy at all levels and inclusively responding to emergencies and natural disasters in India.

Why people with disabilities?

About 21 million people in India live with disability!

Disbility

Disability is both a cause and consequence of poverty. Poverty causes disability through factors like limited access to good nutrition, adequate health care, clean water, or through unsafe working conditions. A person with disability is less likely to have access to rehabilitation, education and employment which make it difficult for them to escape the vicious cycle of poverty.
