Accessibility Uncovered: A Weekly Post by One Accessibility Team

In 2019, One Accessibility team  started this weekly enlightenment post to help Local Guides, enthusiasts, organizations and citizens understand issues around disabilities and how accessibility can improve lives across the world. We shall also profile accessible buildings, devices and services enabling #accessibility everywhere for everyone.

 

Our team also have a webinar "Accessibility Uncovered Webinar Series" where experts are invited to talk about accessibility and inclusion. 

 

We hope our articles will help change the narratives and spur you to support persons with disabilities in your community.

 

Thank you for reading.
