Happening now: Launch of the Disability Inclusion Report!
Disability inclusion is not just a moral imperative—it’s an economic and social necessity. In Kenya alone, exclusion of persons with disabilities costs 6.95% of GDP annually.
It’s time to break the barriers.
"We have a good understanding of which children are being left behind. It is more likely to be those with disabilities, those in rural areas, and those in arid and semi-arid areas...." #GEEAP member @SaraRuto_ speaking at the #AfricaEvidenceForum2023! 📚

@KenyaBlindUnion and KUB are developing Minimum Standards for Inclusion and Protection of Blind and Partially Sighted Persons in Kenya During Situations of Emergencies. The consultants were @fred_haga and myself who technically supported the process.
Workshop on Minimum standards for protection and inclusion of blind and partially sighted in situations of emergencies.
As a Network, we will initiate the same to apply to all types of Disabilities. Thank you @KUBKenya#BlindInclusion@Senseintkenya@fred_haga@teamksblind
It's exciting to see a concept you have been working on as a team come to life! The first National Forum on Inclusion and Equity in Education was a great success. Lots of thanks to all who helped make it happen, honored to have been part of steering it forward
