Building an Inclusive
Kenya — One Community at a Time
Disability exclusion in Kenya is not just physical — it is deeply embedded in cultural attitudes, religious beliefs, and systemic barriers. Auschidys's Social Inclusion pillar targets the root causes of exclusion through structured advocacy, public awareness, and direct policy engagement.
Through our 200+ community advocacy sessions, we reach schools, churches, village councils, and government offices — training leaders, families, and community members on disability rights, the law, and what inclusion really means in practice. Our community commitment-signing events hold local leaders publicly accountable for inclusive action.
- 200+ advocacy trainings and community awareness campaigns conducted
- Anti-stigma programmes in schools, churches, and community spaces
- Policy advocacy with county and national government disability desks
- Community commitment signing — ward leaders pledging inclusive action
- Rights-based legal awareness for persons with disabilities and families
- Media engagement and public communications on disability rights
- Faith community sensitisation — engaging religious leaders as inclusion champions

How We Work
Our Approach
Awareness Campaigns
We run structured public awareness campaigns that reach communities, schools, workplaces, and faith institutions — shifting attitudes and dismantling stigma.
Rights Advocacy
We train persons with disabilities, families, and community leaders on the Persons with Disabilities Act, CRPD obligations, and their rights under Kenyan law.
Policy Engagement
Martin Kilavi serves on NIADAC — giving Auschidys a direct voice in national disability policy. We engage county governments, ministry officials, and development partners.
Community Dialogues
Facilitated community forums bring together persons with disabilities, caregivers, local leaders, and service providers — building shared commitments to inclusion.
