A Disability Research Country Working Group (DRCWG) is a country-based working group that is made up of persons with disabilities, disability researchers, government, business, and civil society, including researchers and academics with disabilities working together with other stakeholders in their home country and adopting the AfriNEAD concept of inclusion locally to establish the state of disability research and identify areas that require intervention. The aim of the DRCWG is meant to strengthen the work of AfriNEAD in affiliated countries. The DRCWG conduct and collate country and context specific research which enables the relevant stakeholders to grasp the state of disability issues in their country. The DRCWG also acts as a vehicle to facilitate the translation of disability research into policy and practice. It is a strategy to ensure that at country level, research on disability is translated into meaningful evidence-based advocacy, practice, products, policy and domestic legislation that ensures equal opportunities and the realization of human rights for persons with disabilities. In a way, the DRCWG is a mini-AfriNEAD at country level.
