Alumni Corner: Ignore Disability, Explore Ability

Alumni Organize Activity for Promotion of Sports Skills among Persons with Disabilities

This activity was organized by exchange alumni Sahib Khan Bhand and Abid Lashari in Nawabshah in February 2016 with the sole purpose of creating awareness among people to highlight the need for sports opportunities for persons with disabilities.  We are replugging this story to share how our alumni in Sindh are working towards promoting inclusivity for persons with disabilities.  The activity engaged key stakeholders from Nawabshah for an open dialogue with the community on the need for promoting equality and inclusion.  Participants discussed the importance of sports for physical and mental health, creation of accessible infrastructure for persons with disabilities, and promoting the spirit of entrepreneurship among persons with disabilities.
