Today is the International Day of Persons with Disabilities!

For the 1 billion people in the world with #disabilities, bodily autonomy is a right but not always a reality.

One in five women will experience a #disability in her lifetime. Yet women with disabilities are up to 10 times more likely to experience gender-based violence, and are often prevented from accessing sexual and reproductive health care.

An inclusive and equitable world is possible, but only if we respect and protect the rights of people with disabilities

"Amplifying the leadership of persons with disabilities for an inclusive and sustainable future"

December 3 is the International Day for Persons with Disabilities. This day promotes an understanding of disability issues, and mobilizes support for the dignity, rights, and well-being of people with disabilities. We're big into this kind of support - it's one of the principles (perhaps the most crucial principle!) upon which our event was founded. Accessibility - true accessibility - is so much more than wheelchair ramps and alt text on webpage images. We encourage everybody to learn more. To that end, we're highlighting some terrific relevant resources, including resources related to the fibre arts, and some links to help you search for makers with disabilities.
