Inclusion International is hosting a Self-Advocacy Summit this September in Sharjah, United Arab Emirates!
A Self-Advocacy Summit is an international meeting for self-advocates. We will have different topics that we will talk about, and it will all be planned by self-advocates.
We will have the Self-Advocacy Summit on 14 September, when self-advocates will come together and share experiences.
We are looking for self-advocates who can come to be speaker at the Self-Advocacy Summit.
We have sent out an application asking self-advocates that are coming to the summit to apply to be speakers. The self-advocate will choose the topics they want to talk about in the application.
Self-Advocates can apply now:
The deadline to apply is June 26th.
Who should apply?
We are looking for 10 self-advocates who can be speakers at the Summit.
Because the Summit is just for self-advocates, only people with intellectual disabilities can apply to be speakers.
Self-advocates who are applying to be speakers at the Self-Advocacy Summit should already be coming to the Summit funded with their own funding.
Inclusion International does not have funding to pay for speakers to travel to the United Arab Emirates to take part.
Apply Now
Self-advocates coming to the World Congress can apply in 4 languages:
We are looking forward to have self-advocates at the Summit and to learn from them from different topics.
