Lois Auta founded the “Network of Disabled Women” in September, 2019. We have 250+ members across Nigeria, some countries in Africa, UK and the US. We have reached out to 4000+ vulnerable groups, so far. The idea aims to ensure the inclusion of women with disabilities linking UNCRPD, SDGs, Africa 2063 and Nigeria Disability Act. Now, it is a network of 250+ organizations founded and owned by women with disabilities formed to coordinate inclusive activities in Nigeria and the World.
Our passion is on human rights based model, which links gender and disability, matters ranging from political, civil, economic, social, sports, health and cultural rights. We are advocates for equal representation, non-discrimination and inclusive society for women and girls with disabilities. We are also interested in creating greater awareness among governments and the public
