The Global Disability Summit is more than a convening platform. It is also a catalyst for knowledge creation. Through the GDS process, a wide range of partners, session organisers and exhibitors contribute resources that reflect lived experience, evidence, innovation and good practice across a broad spectrum of disability inclusion themes.

This library brings all of those contributions together in one place — from research reports and policy briefs to advocacy toolkits, case studies and more. Whether you’re a policymaker, practitioner, advocate or ally, the GDS Library is here to support learning, collaboration and lasting impact.

Browse the knowledge products attached below and explore the links to discover a wide range of perspectives, research and resources shared through the Global Disability Summit.

Here you can find some links received from our contributors:
