About

The Life Gate for Persons with Disabilities (LGPD) is a Rwandan Organization of Persons with Disabilities (OPD) dedicated to promoting disability rights, advocacy, empowerment, and health promotion for persons with disabilities. LGPD primarily focuses on rural women and girls with disabilities of reproductive age (15–49 years), who often face barriers to information, healthcare, and essential services, and children with disabilities from low-income families. Through partnerships with community leaders, government institutions, and civil society organizations, LGPD promotes the empowerment and well-being of its beneficiaries, advocating for equal opportunities and respect for their rights. The organization is committed to fostering an inclusive society where women, girls, and children with disabilities can fully realize their potential and actively participate in community life.
