    Goals / Remit

    Light for the World is an international disability and development organisation whose vision is an inclusive society where no one is left behind.

    We enable crucial eye health services and empower people with disabilities in some of the poorest regions of the world.

    Our programmes include:
    - Eyesight – preventing blindness and promoting eye health for all
    - Education – ensuring children with disabilities receive quality, inclusive education
    - Empowerment – advocating for the health and rights of people with disabilities in their communities and within development efforts

    We focus on the poorest and hardest to reach because those are the people who need it most.

    We create change through local people, organisations and governments because we want our impact to last.

    We work with partners because we cannot do it alone.

    We work with partners and underserved communities around the world in countries including Burkina Faso, Democratic Republic of Congo, Ethiopia...
