Belgium just also sequenced B.1.1.529 #variant from someone who was in Egypt (far from Southern Africa). You think #EU etc are going to restrict travel to #Belgium? No. But they might just decide to lump all Africa into one excluded no-go zone. The hypocrisy of the #globalnorth

From access to education, to being read to at home; children with disabilities are less likely to be included or heard on almost every measure. All too often, children with disabilities are simply being left behind.

Exclusion is often the consequence of invisibility. We have not had reliable data on the number of children with disabilities for the longest time. When we fail to count, consider and consult with these children, we are failing to help them reach their vast potential.
