NOWPDP operates in the development sector with a focus on inclusion through empowerment of persons with disabilities. Our view on persons with disabilities is for them to be an important stakeholder in the bigger picture, whether one considers education or employment, ergo the saying “A Part. Not Apart”. The core values behind NOWPDP’s framework are empathy, action and social justice. Therefore, the splayed fingers in our logo mark represent the whole, with the smaller, slightly different thumb representing persons with disabilities as an integral part of it.
