Newz Hook – Changing Attitudes towards Disability
15% of the population experiences some form of a disability, and yet are often ignored! Today, people with disabilities are at the peripheral of most conversations. Newz Hook looks at how to engage with them as an inclusive part of the conversation. We highlight stories that share insights into the lives of people with disabilities, offer solution

s and create collaborations. Our focus is to have Inclusion Champions from across the globe who share knowledge about disability, inclusion & accessibility.
