These tools focus on the big global issues that affect the lives of people with intellectual disabilities and their families.
The resources were developed by self-advocates in our network with support from Inclusion International, UNICEF, and the German government (BMZ). They cover 11 important topics:
- Inclusive Employment
- Education
- The Right to Decide and Inclusive Participation
- Community Care and Support
- Social Protection
- Healthcare
- Accessibility
- Intersecting Discrimination
- Climate Change and Humanitarian Response
- Technology
- Ageing
What to Expect
In the webinar, you’ll hear directly from self-advocates who helped create these tools. They will:
- Explain how the tools were developed
- Share how their groups are already using them
- Give ideas for how your group can use the resources
- Answer questions from participants
This is an opportunity to connect with other self-advocates around the world, learn from each other, and build stronger messages on the issues that matter most.
