Your one-stop hub for knowledge, tools and inspiration on disability inclusion.

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:

  • Arbeiter-Samariter-Bund Deutschland e.V
    • Digital Library: The DiDRRN’s digital library is accessible under the following link: https://didrrn.net/digital-library/. It is open-access, equipped with a UserWay plugin for improved accessibility, and features categorized resources on disability-inclusive data, disaster risk reduction (DRR), climate change adaptation (CCA), and anticipatory action (AA). The last menu option also provides access to a Spanish-language knowledge product catalogue developed by Red GIRDD LAC.
    • Quiz Web App: We had developed a quiz web page for booth visitors, which can be accessed here: https://didrrlibrary.my.canva.site/quiz.
