About Asia-Pacific Network for Accessibility (APNA)

The Asia-Pacific Network for Accessibility (APNA) is a cross-disability, women-led initiative dedicated to advancing universal accessibility and disability-inclusive development across the Asia-Pacific region. Born from the vision of the Jakarta Declaration on the Asian and Pacific Decade of Persons with Disabilities, 2023-2032 (Jakarta Declaration), APNA seeks to remove barriers—both physical and digital—that prevent persons with disabilities from fully participating in education, employment, public life, and social engagement. Our work is guided by the belief that true inclusion can only be achieved when everyone, regardless of gender, disability, or location, has equitable access to opportunities and resources. APNA brings together a diverse collective of women with disabilities, their allies, and technical experts who leverage lived experiences and professional expertise to drive systemic change. We advocate for the rights of persons with disabilities, promote women’s leadership, and work in partnership with governments, United Nations entities, civil society, and the private sector to make the right to accessibility real.
