"Nothing About Us, Without Us!" is a well-known motto for the disability movement. It means that governments and other decision makers must include us in all issues that concern us as humans, not only as people with #disabilities. #DisabilityInclusion
@daryllloyd@ICED_LSHTM@FCDOInclusive@BIGD_bracu People with disabilities account for approx 15% of the population
We need to encourage our partners to consider people with disabilities in all of their research!
We have a lot of work to do, but @BIGD_bracu have shown that it can be done!!
