InCLUDEus!
A short documentary that highlights one of the very many and avoidable challenges People With Disabilities (PWDs) in Nigeria face when accessing public facilities.
In this video, I follow my friend Mrs Tosin Ishola on a trip around town, to witness first hand just how inaccessible the Nigerian built-up environment is.

HACEY; Championing the Rights of the Girl-Child
"Not only did this year’s
international day of the girl-child celebration hosted by Hacey Health
Initiative spotlight the importance of girl-child education and empowerment, it
potentially made an advocate for girl-child education of every girl present!"

Climate Change and People With Disabilities (PWDs): Awareness, Vulnerability, Adaptation
"Even though it falls under the purview of the Lagos State
Emergency Management Agency (LASEMA), to ensure the safety and protection of
PWDs during emergencies, no one could give me the figure for the number of PWDs
who were successfully rescued/evacuated or who have lost their lives during
recent flooding in the State. This reflects the dearth of adequate record
keeping at the very least and non-performance on the part of this agency
towards ensuring the safety of PWDs."
