Humanity & Inclusion (HI) works with people with disabilities in about 60 countries. They support people with disabilities in becoming more self-reliant. HI also intervenes in humanitarian emergency situations. For example, they provide rehabilitation and other services after natural disasters and war. The organization also sometimes works with Deaf people. For example, HI helped teachers and students at a school in Togo learn sign language. As a result, they communicate better with a deaf student in their school.

The Humanity & Inclusion website is partly accessible for people using screen reading software. For example, some images use alt tags to describe them. But the site has some accessibility limits. For example, web links do not have labels to say where they go.
