School-Based Advocacy is The IREDE Foundation’s initiative to educate students of Primary and Secondary Schools on Disability to curb the stigmatization Children With Disabilities face from their peers. This is done through the distribution of our Comic Book, IREDIANS.

So far, more than 10,000 copies of IREDIANS have been distributed in private and secondary schools alike.

School-Based Advocacy aims to do the following:

• Enable an inclusive learning environment for children with disabilities.
• Trigger an increased knowledge, a change in behavior and attitude towards children with disabilities within and outside the school.
• Bring to the barest minimum the discrimination that children with disabilities face in the society
