Light for the World’s work making refugee camps disability inclusive is reported by @BBCAfrica More than 600,000 people have fled Sudan for South Sudan since the outbreak of the conflict: an estimated one in six refugees and returnees has a disability. bbc.in/3wa2zc1
📣 Are you a journalist who wants to know how to report on disability? From using inclusive language to making reasonable accommodations for interviews, here are six tips, by @lftwworldwide, for journalists reporting on disability. buff.ly/49THCzI
At #ARFSD2024, our Programme Manager Hannan Endale called upon governments to act! “People with disabilities represent 15 to 17 % of every population. We deserve to be considered.” Full video: bit.ly/ARFSD2024/ @ECA_OFFICIAL @ADFSecretariat @iddcconsortium @IDA_CRPD_Forum
"Football is a universal language that brings people together, regardless of their disability or background," says Simon Madol, coach of the South Sudan #BlindFootball league. ⚽️ Simon's story on disability-inclusive sport is now on @Goal_Click: goal-click.com/football-photo… 📸

We are proud to be part of the We Can Work #WCW program inception meeting. It has been a learning journey together with @lftwworldwide & partners. We are making good progress and the journey has just begun.
#MondaySpotlight Stereotypes about people with disabilities often come from doubting their ability to tell their own stories. However, @musiisimen48068 is one of the people turning the tide on that narrative. More insights here👉: shorturl.at/arxyN
♿️ Disability awareness begins with you! This Trainer's Manual aims to provide #disability awareness guidelines that encourage a focus on the abilities of all individuals rather than viewing an impairment as a defect of the individual. 👉 bit.ly/3vW5q82
Education is the way to bridge equality gaps. The EU must join efforts with civil society to further promote equality through education in the coming future, transform stereotypes and dismantle the causes of inequality and systems of oppression. #GlobalGateway @kathleensherwin
Together with other CSO colleagues, @potard_marguot, our Director of EU Advocacy & Policy, attended the #GlobalGateway Education Forum today. Engagement between EU institutions & CSOs is crucial to ensure meaningful, inclusive and quality education. 📑wvi.org/publications/p…
