How can we reach every last person in need of eye health services? Recognising the need to address this, CBM’s Inclusive Eye Health (IEH) initiative guided by its principles of Inclusion, Integration and Comprehensiveness, has been leading the discussion to partner for solutions that are sustainable for scale and impact.

In recognition of International Women’s Day and the 2019 theme, #Balanceforbetter, CBM is pleased to release an inquiry that looks at some of the care challenges faced by women with disabilities, and families of children with disabilities. It highlights learning and practical steps that CBM’s partners have taken to address these challenges.

This year’s World Hearing Day’s theme, “Check Your Hearing”, resonates very well with CBM’s work in the field of Ear and Hearing Care (EHC).

CBM is delighted to announce the publication of the latest in its Disability-Inclusive Development (DID) book series. The book, entitled “My Right is Our Future: The Transformative Power of Disability-Inclusive Education” explores the essential elements needed to ensure that inclusive education ensures DID.

CBM is launching its book on Inclusive Education at the G20 Summit in Buenos Aires on 29 November 2018. To mark this event, we have compiled a list of case studies highlighting the important of inclusive education.

13 October is designated as International Day for Disaster Reduction to promote a global culture of disaster reduction, including disaster prevention, mitigation and preparedness. Every year the Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) Day recognises progress and encourages further efforts to build disaster resilient communities and nations.
