Building Bridges for Inclusion Webinar | 3 December 2025

How Service Clubs Can Drive Change for Persons with Disabilities

Around the world, millions of people with disabilities continue to face barriers that limit their full participation in society. Yet service clubs have long been champions of inclusion, dignity, and health.

On December 3, the International Day of Persons with Disabilities, the International Federation for Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus (IF) invites you to join a global webinar:

‘Building Bridges: How Service Clubs Can Drive Change for Persons with Disabilities’

This event will highlight how Rotary, Lions, Kiwanis, and other service networks are advancing equality and empowerment through community action and collaboration.

Service clubs have a proud history of driving impactful community projects worldwide. Their networks, resources, and spirit of service uniquely position them to support vulnerable populations, including people affected by Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus (SBH), conditions that often require specialised lifelong care, mobility support, accessible and inclusive social services (Read the recent IF Statement here).

Despite progress in healthcare and awareness, many individuals with disabilities still face barriers to healthcare, education, and social inclusion, particularly in underserved regions.

This interactive webinar will bring together service club members and partners from across the world to:

• Exchange knowledge and best practices;
• Showcase successful inclusion projects;
• Explore new opportunities for collaboration.

Participants will hear directly from service club members leading impactful initiatives, from grassroots community programs to international advocacy, and gain practical insights to strengthen their own engagement in disability inclusion.

The discussion will also highlight the power of youth leadership and innovation, global cooperation in promoting rights, inclusion, and quality of life for persons with disabilities.

Together, we can leverage the collective power of service clubs to create lasting positive change and build a more inclusive world for people living with Spina Bifida, Hydrocephalus, and other disabilities.
