<p>DFID funds a number of projects which support deaf people, including through Sense
International and the Disability Rights Fund, which supports Deaf People’s Organisations
in a number of countries including Rwanda and Uganda. DFID advocates for the use of
the Washington Group Questions as a method of disaggregating data by disability. The
questions can give policy makers a better understanding of the number and situation
of deaf people as well as those with other impairments. DFID is implementing its disability
framework, published in December 2014. The framework sets out how DFID will make its
policies and programmes more inclusive of all people with disabilities.</p>
