Learn about our organization, history, and the vision that drives us.
Tanzania Center for Disabilities Development Initiatives (TCDDI) is a civil society organization dedicated to advocating for the rights, inclusion, and full participation of persons with disabilities across Tanzania.
We work across communities to break down barriers — physical, social, economic, and political — that prevent persons with disabilities from living full and dignified lives.
Through strategic partnerships, community engagement, and direct program delivery, TCDDI drives meaningful, lasting change for disability inclusion in Tanzania.
TCDDI was established with a clear mission to bridge the gap between disability policy and lived reality in Tanzania, bringing together activists, professionals, and community members.
Over the years, TCDDI has grown its reach across multiple regions in Tanzania, building local capacity and strengthening its network of partners and stakeholders.
Today, TCDDI stands as a recognized voice for disability rights in Tanzania, influencing policy, raising awareness, and directly supporting thousands of persons with disabilities.
An inclusive and equitable Tanzania where persons with disabilities enjoy equal rights, opportunities, and full participation in all aspects of social, economic, and political life — free from discrimination and barriers.
To advocate for the rights of persons with disabilities, build their capacity, create awareness, and forge strategic partnerships that advance disability inclusion and equitable development in Tanzania.
