To create a more inclusive world, people with disabilities and their organisations must have a seat at the table.

This point is made brilliantly and succinctly in this video from CoorDown.

In between our immersion in Asia, a brief greeting from the Zero Project Conference in Vienna and our panel on ‘How to run a business as a deafblind person’. What a great exchange with Sanja Tarczay from the WFDB and Mellen Marucha from Sense International Kenya!
