- The Right to Decide and Inclusive Participation
- Community Care and Support
- Social Protection
- Healthcare
- Accessibility
- Intersecting Discrimination
- Climate Change and Humanitarian Response
- Technology

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

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.
