Ahadi Foundation

Redefining Perceptions of Disability

Because disability is too rarely associated with leadership, and even less so when it comes to women, the Ahadi Foundation is innovating by unlocking the exceptional potential of women with disabilities, empowering them towards emancipation and greater presence in economic, social, and political decision-making spheres.

Welcome to all of you who recognize that the representation of women leaders with disabilities around the world is a source of richness and pride to be shared

Our mission

Empowering Women with Disabilities through Leadership and Intercultural Dialogue

The AHADI Foundation is building a global community of women with disabilities who are leaders. By transforming obstacles into opportunities, we promote the empowerment and socio-economic leadership of hundreds of thousands of women.
Our dream is to see, in the coming years, women with disabilities holding high-level positions and being better represented in all spheres of society, so they can positively influence them.

More than just a dream, it's a promise —as 'Ahadi' means in Swahili.

Rather than attempting to erase vulnerabilities, a mindset that has long prevailed, today’s focus is on valuing the unique potential of each individual and developing their ability to act through an innovative program and inclusive intercultural dialogue.

« Fate has given me an incredible opportunity: to be a Black, disabled, woman! I don’t fit any of the expected molds for success. And yet, I thrive! While my vulnerabilities are real, they have become my vital strength. »
