Excited to support the first ever World Day for Assistive Technology! Today, 2.5 billion people need at least one form of assistive product - such as wheelchairs, eyeglasses, hearing aids, prosthetics and digital devices to enable people to live independent lives. But today only 10% of people in low income countries can access the AT they need.
A big thank you to the team at ATscale, the Global Partnership for Assistive Technology and Ceridwen Johnson for the #UnlockTheEveryday campaign, and to accessiBe for helping share the story of my colleague Sheldon Lewis. You can read it here: https://lnkd.in/eUFUuXAA
