In India, disabled people face many barriers and their needs are more often unrecognised or disregarded. This is due to a number of reasons: from a lack of resources and infrastructure, incomprehensive equality laws and policies with a general lack of enforcement to a dismissive culture and negative attitudes of society in relation to the ability of disabled people. This is compounded by a visible lack of disabled leaders and role models for aspiring disabled people in India.
Why India?
- Business Context
With the current intensified interest on the international business relationship between the UK and India, our LEAD (Leadership, Empowerment and Development) programme particularly focuses on providing UK businesses with a sustainable platform to develop their international market and invest in a corporate social initiative. This results in empowering the disadvantaged and also improving business ethics, both in India and in the UK.
