Bringing Disability Inclusion to the forefront
Our goal of building a more diverse community of professionals presents the opportunity to better include people with disabilities and those who care for them. We are committed to fostering an environment where people with disabilities are included, feel empowered to be themselves and have access to the support and adjustments they need to thrive.
In 2020, PwC’s Global Chairman, and a number of Territory Senior Partners (TSPs) became signatories of the Valuable 500, a global movement putting disability on the business leadership agenda. As part of this, PwC made a commitment to appoint a Global Disability Leader to drive accelerated and lasting change across the network. In September 2021, Leandro Camilo, a Partner, and the Inclusion & Diversity Leader, PwC Brazil, was appointed. Learn more about Leandro and his commitment to Disability Inclusion.

In 2022, we released our network's first Global Disability Inclusion Strategy, focussed on enhancing the lives of people with disabilities at PwC and those who have caring responsibilities, as well as people in the wider communities in which we work. This strategy articulates our vision and the areas we will focus on to drive change across the network. All member firms will be asked to take a minimum level of action over the next three years.

Celebrating Disability Inclusion
Global Accessibility Awareness Day (GAAD) 2025
GAAD, aims to raise awareness of digital access and inclusion. Its overarching message is that someone with a disability should be able to experience web-based services, content and other digital products with the same successful outcome as those without disabilities.
By working together within our network, we are striving to foster and build a future where people with disabilities are fully included, feel empowered, and have the support, technology, and adjustments they need to thrive.
For GAAD 2025 we explore the human element and experience of digital accessibility via an insightful article titled 'A day in the life: exploring the human side of digital accessibility’. This article provides an opportunity to imagine and reflect on the obstacles that people with disabilities face daily, and how we can all work together to overcome them.
International Day of Persons with Disabilities (IDPD) 2024
IDPD aims to promote the rights and well-being of persons with disabilities in all spheres of society.
At PwC, we are committed to fostering an environment where people with disabilities are included, feel empowered to be themselves and have access to the support and adjustments they need to thrive.
This year, building on a successful Paralympic Games, Paris 2024, we are marking IDPD by raising up and amplifying the voices of Paralympians, including some of our very own PwC Paralympians. We believe that representation and role-modeling really matters, find out why in Leandro Camilo’s (PwC’s Global Disability Inclusion Leader) IDPD leadership blog. We’re also delivering a number of accessible global events to create stronger disability inclusion awareness while sharing the experiences of an amazing Paralympian along with insights from a number of our leaders. On IDPD, and every day, we are committed to continuing to make Disability Inclusion progress. Be inspired by learning more about the experiences of our PwC Paralympians in our IDPD video.
