Inclusive Friends Association Inclusive Friends promotes the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and their Inclusion in Nigeria's Political and Social Life.

IFA is an innovative and consistent leader within the Disability community as well as in the democracy and governance space with a wide network of allies, stakeholders and various PWD groups nationally which are instrumental to the success of its programs. IFA through its projects conducted Africa’s first, second and third accessibility audits of polling units by PWDs in Edo, Ondo and Kogi states

in Nigeria and made independent voting for Blind voters possible through the design of the braille ballot guide. IFA developed and launched a manual on the engagement of Sign language Interpreters during elections in Nigeria. IFA trained approximately 800 persons with disabilities on voter’s rights education during the Edo and Ondo 2020 gubernatorial elections. IFA through the Music for Toilet campaign provided 4 solar-powered boreholes which are currently serving over 8,000 people in Zawan, Gindiri and Bassa communities in Plateau state. The campaign also provided 20 accessible toilet facilities in School for the Blind Gindiri to promote enrollment of Children with Disabilities (CWDs) and restoring the dignity of Girls with Disabilities during their menstrual cycles.

The 4-day Inclusive Capacity Accelerator Hub (ICAH) under the Rights in Action (RIA) project officially came to a close with a reflective and engaging final session anchored on Group Presentations & Learning Check.

Participants presented their group work on asset management plans, demonstrating how far they had come in translating learning into practical institutional tools. This was followed by a post-test, serving as both a reflection point and a measure of knowledge gained across the entire programme.

The sessions were beautifully rounded off by Grace Jerry, Executive Director of the Inclusive Friends Association (IFA), who delivered a powerful closing reflection, bringing the entire experience to a meaningful and inspiring conclusion.

Indeed, it was a deeply transformative journey, 4 days of intensive learning, practical engagement, and intellectual growth that strengthened capacity, shifted mindsets, and empowered participants to build stronger, more sustainable OPDs.

Another deeply engaging session was facilitated by Theophilus Michael Odaudu, Program Officer for Sub-Saharan Africa at Disability Rights Fund, who took participants through Sustainable Fundraising for OPDs, with a strong focus on building financial resources without compromising organisational identity and core values.

The session unpacked practical pathways to resource mobilisation, sustainability strategies, and adaptive fundraising approaches tailored to OPDs operating in dynamic environments. It challenged participants to think beyond survival funding and towards long-term financial resilience and independence.

It was a rich, eye-opening, and strategically stimulating session, one that reshaped perspectives on sustainability and strengthened the resolve to build organisations that are both impactful and financially stable.
