Disability inclusive graduation: A livelihood support intervention in Bangladesh
What works for disability inclusion? New evidence from Bangladesh on a disability-inclusive graduation programme and its impacts.
This webinar will present findings from the Disability-Inclusive Ultra-Poor Graduation (DIUPG) programme in Bangladesh, followed by expert reflections and audience Q&A. Attendees will learn about the programme's impact on employment, income, assets and wellbeing among people with disabilities, the mechanisms through which change occurred, and the implications for designing and scaling disability-inclusive poverty reduction programmes. The session will provide practical insights for policymakers, donors, researchers and organisations working to promote disability inclusion and economic empowerment.
