Today, on International Day of People with Disability, we celebrate the leadership, resilience, and contributions of individuals with disabilities in building a more inclusive and sustainable future. This year’s theme, “Amplifying the leadership of persons with disabilities for an inclusive and sustainable future,” highlights the critical role of empowering voices that often go unheard. Leadership by individuals with disabilities not only enriches our workplaces and communities but also strengthens the foundations of equity and sustainability. I am inspired by the powerful stories of individuals overcoming barriers and leading change. By fostering inclusion, we create opportunities for everyone to contribute their skills and perspectives, driving innovation and growth. Let’s commit to amplifying these voices - not just today, but every day. Together we can create workplaces, farms, and communities that truly empower leadership from all and achieve a more sustainable and equitable future. To everyone championing inclusion: thank you for your unwavering commitment. Let’s continue to build a world where leadership knows no limits. #IDPwD #AmplifyLeadership #Inclusion #Accessibility #Sustainability #DiversityAndInclusion

Sharing your experiences can build awareness, challenge stereotypes, and dispel misconceptions. Through sharing, a person can highlight the barriers they face, inspire solutions, and encourage others towards more inclusive and equitable practices. This post is part of a weekly series I’ve created to share tips on accessibility and inclusivity. Driven by my personal commitment to raising awareness and confidence for disability and neurodivergence, these posts are independent of my professional role. #Inclusivity #Inclusion #SharingExperiences #Diversity #DiversityandInclusion #Sharing

Making community-level planning inclusive does not happen by chance. Ensuring #inclusivity in community-level #planning requires #deliberate actions to create #opportunities for the representation and contribution of #marginalized (and minority) groups, including differently-abled persons. We can harness their #unique perspectives and #insights to create more equitable and effective #solutions by actively involving these individuals in the planning process. Community-level planning that overlooks the voices of marginalized groups not only perpetuates inequality but also overlooks valuable contributions that could #enhance the overall #resilience and sustainability of the community. Therefore, it is imperative to implement measures that facilitate the active participation of people with disabilities in #decision-making processes. The Community Action Planning (#CAP) process, through the guideline, makes it explicit for inclusive planning and creates opportunities not just for participation but also for contribution and #involvement. By embracing inclusivity and valuing the contributions of all community members, we can #foster a more equitable and resilient society where everyone has a voice in shaping a collective #future. #InclusivePlanning #CommunityEngagement #DisabilityRights #Equity #Inclusion
