Voices of the marginalised: summary

Piloting participatory research with persons with disabilities and older people in Bangladesh

Sightsavers, HelpAge International, ADD International and Alzheimer’s Disease International worked together with the Institute of Development Studies (IDS) to bring the perspectives of those who live in poverty or who are highly marginalised into post-2015 policy making.

This is the summary of the full report, entitled ‘We can also make change’, which presents the findings of the Voices of the Marginalised pilot research project. The report draws on the real-life stories of persons with disabilities and older people in Bangladesh, as told to researchers by persons with disabilities, family members of persons with disabilities and older people themselves.
