[Virtual] India, March 29, Ghumakkad Gossip: Accessibility Awareness

Welcome friends to Episode-5 of the Ghumakkad Gossip meet-up series.

It is going to be an experiential meet-up where the invited Guest Speaker will talk about the selected topic. Attendees are requested to share their thoughts (if any) in advance in the comment section so that the speaker will address those points during the meet-up. This way the flow of the meet-up will be maintained.

We have kicked off this series of meet-ups first with the most talked about topic Supporting Small Businesses. The Responses and Reactions of the GG kick off meet-up was quite positive and the outcome is very satisfying. After this kick off meet-up, we can observe the sequence of posts now on Connect, covering Small Local Businesses by many Local Guides. A truly welcoming impact of powerful gossip session with the Connect Moderator - Tushar Suradkar (@TusharSuradkar).

This episode is dedicated to overview on Accessibility Awareness to create awareness on accessible environment. With the help of Google Maps, we have an opportunity to further build and strengthen the accessible ecosystem around us. The ‘Specially abled people’ are valuable members of our communities and they deserve fully accessible environment. And to enlighten on this topic the Accessibility Champion, the Meet-up Champion and the Connect Moderator - @KashifMisidia (Kashif Abdul Razzaq) from Karachi, Pakistan, has humbly accepted my (on your behalf) invite to join us in GG Meet-up series with his in-depth wisdom on the topic. This is going to be quite touchy and full of emotions with his personal experience on the topic. So, please block your calendar and get ready for the amazing session.
