Disabled people’s organisations (DPOs)

DPOs are usually self-organised organisations where the majority of control at the board and membership level is with persons with disabilities. The role of a DPO is to provide a voice on all matters related to the lives of persons with disabilities. The term Organisations of Persons with Disabilities (OPDs) is becoming more common.

More information about DPOs/OPDs can be found in the section 'What are OPDs'
