DFN is educating grantmakers to help them understand the crucial importance of taking disability explicitly into account when funding international poverty programs. Tools: DFN has developed publications that will illustrate to grantmakers the significant interrelationships between disability and issues of general interest to “nondisability” funders. DFN’s purpose is to help funders understand the crucial importance of taking disability explicitly into account when funding poverty programs and to encourage poverty funders to be more inclusive of people with disabilities.
