In Kenya, Light for the World promotes the economic empowerment of people with disabilities through our “InBusiness” initiative. The initiative brings together disability inclusion advocates with public and private sector institutions to co-create sustainable ways of engaging people with disabilities in employment, business and education, while creating shareable models of good practice.  

Our impact in 2021

  • Almost 1,200 people reached for capacity building in entrepreneurship and employability
  • Almost 400 people trained to create disability inclusive workplaces
