At Disability Africa, we try to think things through before we act. We do get emotional sometimes, but we try never to let that guide our strategy.
The ones left behind
It’s a pretty terrible statistic that only 2% of disabled children in Africa attend school, so wherever we go, we are always keen to have the conversation.
Inclusive education in Africa: Look beyond the school gates
Only 2% of disabled children in Africa are attending school. This clearly isn't good enough. But what is inclusive education? Well, it's about much more than just being in the same room. We need to consider the complex reasons why disabled children are denied their right to a quality education and adopt a child-centred approach which looks beyond simple statistics.
