The Programme for Evidence to Inform Disability Action (PENDA) was established to undertake high-quality imp…
Access to healthcare for people with disabilities in Zambia

Prevalence of mental distress in adults with and without a history of tuberculosis in an urban Zambian community
People with tuberculosis (TB) are susceptible to mental distress. Mental distress can be driven by biological and socio-economic factors including poverty. These factors can persist beyond TB treatment completion yet there is minimal evidence about the mental health of TB survivors. A cross-sectional TB prevalence survey of adults was conducted in an urban community in Zambia. Survey participants were administered the five-item Self Reporting Que…

Little is known about the experiences of disabled people who rely on daily support in their homes. This article reports on a year-long study exam…

Are Nepal’s water, sanitation and hygiene and menstrual hygiene policies and supporting documents inclusive of disability? A policy analysis
Though the Constitution of Nepal enshrines gender equality and disability inclusion, there are consistent gaps in attention to disability and MHM in policies and practice.
