December 3, 2024, is International Day of Persons with Disabilities (IDPWD), and this year's theme is "Amplifying the leadership of persons with disabilities for an inclusive and sustainable future". As someone who lives with non-visible disabilities, I cannot stress enough how important it is to celebrate our differences and to raise awareness about the need for inclusion. Everyone has their own distinctive challenges, but they also have unique strengths to bring to the table. The key is to foster an environment where everyone, regardless of their abilities, can thrive and feel valued. So, how can you help? Educate yourself, be empathetic, support each other, help to create inclusive spaces, celebrate differences, and have a positive attitude about everyone's uniqueness. #IDPWD #PWD #PersonsWithDisabilities #InternationalDayofPersonswithDisabilities #IDPD #DisabilityAwareness #InclusionMatters #NonVisibleDisabilities #EmpathyInAction #AccessForAll #DifferentNotLess #TogetherWeRise

Celebrating the Universal Day of People with Disabilities. Today, #MasokaNutritionforDevelopment (MANUD) proudly joins the world in celebrating the Universal Day of People with Disabilities. This day reminds us that disability is not inability—it is diversity, strength, and the unique potential within every individual. At MANUD, inclusion is at the heart of everything we do. We believe that empowering people with disabilities is not just an act of kindness but a step towards building a society where everyone thrives. Together, we can break barriers, shatter stereotypes, and create opportunities that embrace everyone’s potential. Let us celebrate their achievements, amplify their voices, and recommit ourselves to creating a world where every person, regardless of their abilities, has the tools and support to shine. #DisabilityIsNotInability #InclusionMatters #MANUD #UniversalDayofPWDs

#InternationalDayOfPersonsWithDisabilities Projects are more effective when they involve persons with disabilities from the start. Last year, CBM worked with 255 organisations of persons with disabilities to develop inclusive projects, impacting 62.2 million people globally. This International Day of Persons with Disabilities, we’re calling for more data-driven approaches that centre the voices of those who know their needs best. Let’s build a future where no one is left behind. #IDPWD2024 #InclusiveProgramming #DataDrivenDecisions #DevelopmentImpact

International Day of People with Disability is an important day to celebrate and acknowledge achievements - proud of you Kimberley Luscombe and Joanne Robertson! 🤟🏼💜 IDPwD also highlights the challenges and inequities faced by people with disability so we can act. An estimated 1.3 billion people experience significant disability. This represents 16% of the world’s population, or 1 in 6 of us. Some persons with disabilities die up to 20 years earlier than those without disabilities. Persons with disabilities have twice the risk of developing conditions such as depression, asthma, diabetes, stroke, obesity or poor oral health. Health inequities arise from unfair conditions faced by persons with disabilities, including stigma, discrimination, poverty, exclusion from education and employment, and barriers faced in the health system itself. We can do better - I want better for my sisters Joanne and Kim, and for other people with disability. International Day of People with Disabilities (IDPWD) Deaf Connect #IDPwD2024 #auslan
Signing Support 🥰️ On International Day of People with Disability we’re celebrating not just one of our amazing colleagues, but an entire office! Ten members of the Justice payroll team have taken the time to learn Auslan, much to the delight of deaf colleague Kim who says it’s fostered extra depth to their communications, as well as added humour! We’re proud of what can be achieved when we work together and support one another. A big shoutout to Joanne from Deaf Connect who taught our team through their Introduction To Auslan Course. This year’s IDPwD theme is 'Amplifying the leadership of persons with disabilities for an inclusive and sustainable future' and it’s great to see these Justice teammates leading the way!
