Together for inclusion

Imagine a bridge of dialogue and understanding, connecting authorities, NGOs and people with disabilities in Armenia, Georgia and Moldova. This ambitious initiative is made possible thanks to the innovative project „Together for Inclusion”, which will promote a sustainable dialogue between disability rights organizations and government representatives in Armenia, Georgia and the Republic of Moldova. The project runs from May 1 to November 14, 2025 and will be implemented by the „Agate” Rights Defense Center for Women with Disabilities NGO from Armenia, the Association „MOTIVATIE” from Moldova, and the „Coalition for Independent Living” from Georgia. Through public awareness campaigns and direct interaction with persons with disabilities, authorities will see beyond the legislation and truly understand the needs of persons with disabilities. These activities will promote the inclusion and participation of persons with disabilities in society.

The objectives of the „Together for Inclusion” project are to facilitate the exchange of experience and advocacy skills between organizations for the rights of persons with disabilities in Armenia, Georgia and Moldova. The project will also contribute to improving the advocacy capacity of organizations for the rights of persons with disabilities to promote rights-based reforms in national legislation and policies and to promote a dialogue with government and state actors.

The project is implemented with the support of the project „Strengthening Civil Society in the Eastern Partnership”, co-financed by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and the European Union (EU), and implemented by Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH.
