Our plans for the future – making a bigger impact

We have made an enormous impact on the lives of many deafblind people and we are very proud of these achievements. We want to build upon the expertise and experience that we have gained to date to use the next stage in our development to make an even bigger impact. The need is unquestionable - there remain hundreds of thousands of deafblind people receiving no support at all - and we now have the organisational capacity to accelerate and expand our work and make an even more significant and lasting difference for deafblind people throughout the world.

Our strategy from 2005 to 2010 is therefore about making a bigger impact - reaching more deafblind people in more states.

To achieve this we will be focussing on four key areas:

  • WE WILL HAVE GREATER INFLUENCE

    We will ensure that deafblindness is officially recognised as a unique disability in every country where we work. We will actively encourage governments to recognise their responsibility to meet the needs of deafblind people.

    We will develop strategic alliances with more international and local NGOs and encourage them to address the needs of deafblind people.
  • WE WILL BUILD LOCAL CAPACITY

    We will work to ensure the sustainability of local projects by supporting partners to achieve financial and operational independence.

    We will decentralise programme management and empower partners and local people to have more control.
  • WE WILL INCREASE SERVICES

    We will increase the services that are available to deafblind people. There will be more services for more people, ensuring that from birth to old age deafblind people receive appropriate services.

    We will aim to ensure that no deafblind person has to travel more than one day to reach a service that is appropriate for their needs.
  • WE WILL MAXIMISE QUALITY AND EFFICIENCY

    We will ensure the high quality of all our work and the projects we support.

    We will constantly review performance and structures, ensuring that we remain cost-effective and efficient, maximising the outcome of every pound raised.
