The International Centre for Disability and Rehabilitation (ICDR) was established in January 2004.
The centre was formed as a response to the need for sustainable assistance to people with disabilities in developing counties; the need to expand the training of students and practitioners in order to respond to global needs; and in response to the University of Toronto's commitment to reaching beyond its traditional borders.
ICDR has begun to work on a range of projects that contribute to the international development of both institution-based rehabilitation and community-based rehabilitation approaches and services, appropriate to local circumstances. Persons with disabilities are full, active partners in these initiatives.
The mandate of ICDR has three foci and the centre operates with a set of core values.
