What bhart does

B-HART is an Australian social enterprise that embeds human rights across the disability services sector. The company was founded by Pouya Farbod and is headquartered in North Adelaide, operating privately without parent, subsidiary, or institutional investor involvement. It serves three defined personas within Australia's disability ecosystem: disability service providers, individual support workers, and people with disability themselves. The operating geography is explicitly Australia-only, with no global footprint claim and no offices outside the country disclosed.

B-HART delivers an integrated three-service offering built on a unified framework that synthesises the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD), the Inner Development Goals, trauma-informed care, and rights-based Positive Behaviour Support. The three service lines are Certification (enabling providers to demonstrate commitment to human rights-based practice), Training & Development (building rights-based capability in providers, support workers, and leaders), and Resources (practical tools for people with disability to understand and claim their rights). The framework functions as the company's core technology and is positioned as the primary differentiator versus single-standard alternatives in the market.

The business model is consistent with a mission-driven social enterprise: services are delivered directly to end customers in Australia on a quote-based engagement model, with no publicly disclosed pricing. The company is bootstrapped, founder-owned, and operates without disclosed revenue, headcount, funding rounds, partnerships, awards, or marketing channels. There are no disclosed integrations, software products, mobile applications, or APIs; the offering is delivered as services rather than as a technology platform.

Broad incumbents

• National Disability Services (NDS): Australia's peak body for disability service providers, offering workforce training, sector advocacy, and policy leadership. Comparable to B-HART because it sells training and capability-building services to the same Australian disability provider customer base, though at much broader scale and without B-HART's explicit human rights certification niche.
• Australian Human Rights Commission: Australia's national human rights institution, providing training, education, and compliance guidance on rights-based practice including under the UNCRPD. Comparable in that it shapes the rights-based training market B-HART serves, though it is a statutory regulator rather than a commercial certification provider.

Regional players

• Disability Rights UK: Leading UK disability rights organisation providing training, information, and advocacy to disabled people, providers, and employers under a human rights framework. Comparable as an emerging/regional peer operating the same rights-based training and certification model in a different geography.

Direct peers

• JFA Purple Orange: Australian disability rights and capacity-building organisation delivering training, resources, and advocacy for people with disability, families, and the workforce. Comparable because it operates in the same rights-based training and resource provision niche within Australia's disability sector.
• People with Disability Australia (PWDA): Australia's peak disability rights advocacy organisation run by and for people with disability, delivering training, resources, and policy advocacy grounded in the UNCRPD. Directly comparable to B-HART because it targets the same provider, worker, and individual-with-disability segments with rights-based training and resources in the Australian market.
• Inclusion Australia: National disability rights alliance providing advocacy, resources, and rights-based education for people with intellectual disability and their supporters. Comparable because it serves overlapping Australian audiences (people with disability, support workers, providers) with rights-based tools and capability-building programs.
• Attitude Foundation: Australian disability-led training and advocacy organisation delivering rights-based training to disability workers and the broader community. Directly comparable to B-HART for targeting Australian support workers and providers with rights and Positive Behaviour Support training.
• VALID (Victorian Advocacy League for Individuals with Disability): Australian disability advocacy and rights-based training organisation that delivers education programs to disability workers, providers, and people with disability. Comparable to B-HART because it operates in the same rights-based training and advocacy niche in the Australian disability sector.
