Resources
The scope of PWDC’s work is extensive and covers policy making, programme implementation, trainings and networking. Partners and stakeholders include federal and state government representatives and agencies, the corporate sector, civil society groups and community-based organisations and residents.
PWDC possesses a small resource centre in its office on the 47th Floor of KOMTAR, which anyone is welcome to utilise. In addition, there are of course a myriad of web resources on each and every aspect of PWDC’s work.
To get you going, some resources and links are provided here.
