Our founder had the had the privealage of fascilitating a conversation around “Understanding Persons with Disabilities” as part of a workshop. Over three days she moderated a session with , Winstons Fani and (not pictured) all of whom gracefully shared their unique experiences and let us into their world as a person living with a disability. By sharing their stories and perspectives, they helped us understand the challenges faced and the opportunities available for positive change.
Persons with disabilities have dreams, hopes, aspirations just like anybody else. Winston is a martial arts pro, Jabaar is a SAFTA award winning TV presenter with his own show and Tarryn travels the world doing advocacy work. These are just a couple of examples that speak to just how ambitious and fearless they are.
So much was learnt and so much was shared and we hope that the insights and lessons are taken forward, committing ourselves to creating a more inclusive and equitable world where everyone can thrive.
Together, we can build a future where barriers are broken, voices are heard, and every individual is valued for who they are.
See the person NOT the disability!
