Mission of the project
DIRECT is an online resource and learning center focused on advocating, supporting, and advancing socio-economic participation of persons with disabilities through meaningful work and social participation. The focus of DIRECT is specifically on low and middle income countries (LMICs) through non-resource-intensive policies, strategies, and interventions. However, we believe these strategies can be a benefit for inclusive socio-economic participation in any country, regardless of resource availability.
