The International Day of Persons with Disabilities theme this year, emphasises the important role that disabled people play in creating a more inclusive world. We couldn't agree more. This is why our team has taken the time over the past 10 years to work alongside disabled people, gaining their valuable feedback to ensure the platforms that we create are accessible. We strongly urge other agencies to do the same, as it's the only way to get a true picture on the inclusivity of your services. #IDPD #DisabilityDay #EveryoneIncluded #GlobalGoals #CRPD #A11y #Accessibility #InclusiveDesign #DigitalAccessibility #Communications #Disabilities #WebDesign #WebDevelopment #DisabilityAwareness #DisabilityAdvocate

On International Day of People with Disabilities, we honor the diverse experiences and contributions of individuals with disabilities. This day serves as a reminder to break down barriers, challenge stereotypes, and build a more inclusive world for all. 🌍✨ #StetsonAndAssociates #InclusiveSchools #LearningResources #Education #SpecialEducation #Inclusive #IDPD #InternationalDay #Disabilities

As we continue celebrating Disability Pride Month, consider these suggestions from the CDC for how to be an ally. ALLY: Acknowledge and respect individual experiences and abilities.

Text in video reads: Happy Disability Pride Month Peaces of Me Foundation. In between the 2 lines of text is the butterfly of the Peaces of Me logo forming together from a bunch of smaller pieces. Compliance – this is the first word that comes to mind for many people when they think of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), signed into law on this day 34 years ago. However, for many Americans, including myself, the ADA brings to mind themes of inclusion, equality, and celebration of people with disabilities. We commemorate the ADA with our mission for continued progress because disability does not equal inability. This July, we invite you to celebrate everything that makes you unique. Happy Disability Pride Month from Peaces of Me Foundation.

A powerful campaign from our Futurists Zain Group is challenging the global narrative around disability. By sharing stories of people with disabilities from different countries and cultures, this work isn’t just about changing perceptions—it’s about rewriting the narrative. In a world where organizations often invest heavily in systems and policies to promote disability inclusion, it’s important to remember that stories are just as vital. As Brené Brown once said, “Maybe stories are just data with a soul.” While data tells us that 10-15% of employees in any business may have a disability or long-term condition, it’s the lived experiences—shared through stories—that truly move the needle. It’s these stories that empower, educate, and shift cultures from the inside out. #Leaders like Waad Al-Azmi know that we must continue to listen to and amplify the voices of those who are rewriting the narrative on disability. Their stories are a reminder that true inclusion begins with more than just numbers. You can follow this campaign with Zain Group - you can also review the first two stories shared https://lnkd.in/e4kgnT2c and https://lnkd.in/egT72RMM #DisabilityInclusion #PowerOfStorytelling #RewriteTheNarrative #WeAble #TheMasters
