Meaningful engagements with people with disabilities.
InBusiness Initiative brings together advocates of disability inclusion with private sector and the Government to co-create models of sustainably engaging people with disabilities in employment, in business, or in education. This initiative creates a space to explore what works in terms of economic empowerment of people with disabilities and give tools, learnings, practical cases to institutions that are working towards being inclusive.
Our Theory of Change
The InBusiness Initiative in Summary.
Crisis
Very few people with disabilities manage to get post high school diploma and out of that population very few manage to secure employment and even fewer manage to successfully run their own enterprises. The Government of Kenya has supported enactment of robust laws but inclusion of the population with disabilities still remains low.

We aim to improve the economic and social wellbeing of people with disabilities through inclusive business and social engagements and to make inclusion the norm.
