Africa’s Disability, diversity and inclusion forum, Yinka Olaito joins…
In a recent Disability Network advocates’ meeting, Our Executive Director was sharing with like minds a need for collaborative and joint efforts of everyone involved instead of individual advocates or groups running a solo show. While the challenges are real, a concerted voice can be an advantage at the global level. Collaborative, strategic and joint efforts do offer more formidable action oriented results no matter what we say.
So recently, when Africa Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and belonging Forum, a pan African forum championing issues along our corporate goals invited our Executive director to join the second continental event speakers around the issues, he agreed to be there.
