• Sense International Kenya

  **About Sense International** Sense International is a global development organization committed to ensuring that children and young people with deafblindness and multi-sensory impairments can live, learn, and thrive. Operating in eight countries across East Africa (Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania), South Asia (India, Nepal, and Bangladesh), and Latin America (Peru and Romania), Sense International works through locally governed teams and independent organizations, fostering impactful and culturally relevant solutions. As a small yet dynamic organization, Sense International delivers outsized impact, championing the rights and inclusion of people with deafblindness. Guided by the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the organization envisions a world where all individuals with deafblindness are equal, empowered, and actively participating members of society. Its mission is rooted in breaking systemic barriers to ensure that people with deafblindness are recognized, included, and supported to achieve their full potential. This commitment is vital, as people with deafblindness—representing up to 2% of the global population—are often underrepresented, excluded from government policies, and disproportionately affected by poverty, unemployment, and limited access to education, healthcare, and essential services. For over three decades, Sense International has been at the forefront of advocacy for better recognition and inclusion of people with deafblindness. Through policy influence, programmatic innovation, and strategic partnerships, the organization has achieved significant milestones, such as gaining formal recognition of deafblindness as a distinct disability in several countries. Despite these advancements, individuals with deafblindness continue to face significant challenges, making Sense International's work indispensable. The 2022–2027 global strategic framework of Sense International emphasizes innovation and knowledge-sharing in three core areas: **Early Intervention**, **Inclusive Education**, and **Livelihoods**. This strategy prioritizes collaboration with governments to influence policy, improve practices, and ensure no one with deafblindness is left behind in global and national development agendas. Each country program adapts this global framework to local needs, ensuring tailored and impactful solutions for the communities served.

  Tai is dedicated to empowering young people in Tanzania by addressing critical barriers to education, health, and inclusion through storytelling and technology. Guided by a vision of creating equitable opportunities for all, we focus on ensuring that marginalized groups, particularly youth with disabilities, are not left behind. Our mission is to create an environment where people living with disabilities can have equal opportunities to thrive like any other individual regardless of their background or physical appearance.  We have made significant strides in promoting inclusion. Through the **Pamoja Project**, we have reached over 6,000 youth to foster environments that embrace diversity. Additionally, more than 4.5 million community members, including parents and educators, have been engaged through outreach and media campaigns to challenge stigma and promote the rights of people with disabilities.  Our most recent digital tool, the Tai App represents a groundbreaking step in our mission to use technology for social change. Designed for online and offline functionality, the app provides curriculum-aligned educational content, life skills, and stories that resonate with young people. To ensure inclusivity, the app incorporates assistive features such as text-to-speech and voice-to-text, enabling access for youth with hearing or visual impairments.   Our work has shown tangible results, such as improved awareness of challenges faced by people living with disabilities, improved digital literacy, and enhanced self-confidence among students with disabilities. With ongoing innovations and partnerships, Tai is shaping a more inclusive future where no young person is left behind
