Today marks International Day of Persons With Disabilities. Many of us spend lots of our time campaigning for accessibility, inclusion and for our achievements to be celebrated as equitable whilst we battle barriers and bias on a daily basis. Turn this around and what do you lose out on by not including the world’s largest minority group? 1.3 billion people or 16% of the world’s population. It’s the only minority group anyone can join at anytime - just like I did after traumatic circumstances that changed my brain and body. #internationaldayofpersonswithdisabilities #idpwd #fnd #neurology #disabilities #disabilityrights #crpd
