Advocacy is the lynchpin of Sarthak efforts. As it creates the sensitization among corporate, candidates, and society that being differently able just poses a challenge, it does not deny capability of an individual.

 

Disability Advocacy came from the disability rights movement. The significant battles were fought for the rights of people with disability, including the right to have access to public resources, right to education, right to be employed, and other community support services necessary to support living an independent, unsegregated life.

 

Over decades, disability advocates have fundamentally shifted traditional models of thinking about disability to a new understanding where society as a whole takes responsibility for enabling inclusion.

 

The primary focus of our awareness & advocacy initiative is to create opportunities for a life of equality and dignity for Persons with Disability and their families through holistic approach by providing Medical Rehabilitation, Inclusive Education, Skill Development Training &  Sustainable Employment and Advocacy to those in need. 

 

We at Sarthak, carry Advocacy very extensively through various approaches. Prominent amongst them are National Conference on Disability, Round Table Conference, Regional Summits, Job Fairs, Corporate Sensitization and others.

 

The motive behind conducting these advocacy events is to discuss, deliberate, and bring concrete changes in the lives of the persons with disability. The hardcore advocacy events are directed towards bringing the issues in the notice of the stakeholders and help in creating constructional changes in the present disability scenario.

 

In the last nine years of our operations, we feel highly strong and confident upon organizing large number of awareness campaigns and bringing positive changes through a trail of our hardcore advocacy events, across PAN India. 

 

The annual advocacy calendar is a mix of multiple and varied advocacy activities targeting towards discussing and deliberating over the contemporary issues in the disability sector, at local, state and national level . 

 

The group of stakeholder is brought on a common platform to share their views with the each other and talk about the betterment and improvisation of the contemporary system. 

 

On these lines, we have so far organized,

3 National Conferences on Disability, 

4 Regional Summits, 

25 Round Table Conferences, 

3 Stakeholder Engagement Seminars, 

55 Sensitization Workshops, and 

100+ Job fairs;

 

have been organized to create pro-environment for PwDs through various stakeholders.
