Based on its Christian values and over 100 years of professional expertise, CBM addresses poverty as a cause, and a consequence, of disability, and works in partnerships to create a society for all. CBM works in the most disadvantaged communities, irrespective of race, gender or Spiritual Beliefs. CBM seeks to change attitudes, practices and policies that lead to marginalization, exclusion and poverty because of disability, and to strive for peace, justice and dignity for every human being.
