Let’s look at disability in Africa
Africa is a vibrant melting pot of cultures with a growing youth population. More importantly, Africa is home to 300 million persons living with disability. The burden of disease in Africa, specifically, HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, chronic lifestyle conditions such as strokes, diabetes and cancer have all contributed to the increasing numbers of people who are disabled. Additionally, the impacts of poverty, violence and injury have left many vulnerable.
It is against this backdrop the Inclusive Practices Africa (IPA)’s primary objective was born. IPA’s goal is to ultimately reduce inequality caused by disability.
