A billion people live with disabilities globally.
Innovation has the potential to transform accessibility and inclusion.
Attitudes must also transform, so that persons with disabilities face no barriers to decent work, human rights and #socialjustice.

Innovation and technology can be powerful tools for inclusion.
They can open new avenues for persons with disabilities to participate in the workforce and society at large on an equal basis.
