In disasters, persons with disabilities face the highest risks—but also the greatest neglect.

 

Through Disability-Inclusive Disaster Risk Reduction (DiDRR), we must design shelters, infrastructure, and systems that are safe, accessible, and dignified for all.

 

Inclusion isn't charity—it's a right. Let’s build resilience for everyone.
