Disability expo set for next month

“Empowering and Mobilising Society to Create Sustainable Livelihoods for People with Disability”.

The event will be held at Africa Unity Square in the capital.

“The inaugural National Disability Expo serves to advocate the rights of persons with disabilities as promulgated in the laws of the country,” Rtd Brig-Gen Muchemwa said.

The expo, he said, would provide a platform for the Government and other stakeholders to interact, develop synergies and share experiences.

The conference would also showcase knowledge that addresses all disabilities and open new opportunities to anyone involved in the disability arena.

Various organisations are expected to take part, including Government, corporate institutions and NGOs.
