As one of the first self-advocates on our Council and the first CRPD Committee member with an intellectual disability, he raised voices for inclusion globally.

If you like what my Office did this term, the support you received, the guidance, the creativity, it is because I had a very good team.

And two-thirds of it was comprised of women. Many of them mothers.

We even had three new-born babies during the session.

A reminder of who we are leaving this world to.
