Personally I have learnt about inclusiveness. Before today I never thought of the difficulties, discrimination and struggles disable people go through. I hope to continue in my own little way to enforce inclusiveness. Thank you for this eye opener.
Great logistics, excellent presentations and facilitation.
The group discussion and participation was apt and timely. It has changed my perspective about disabled people.
Very good workshop. I think very important particularly to developing countries. The style of workshop is quite fun.
Good training and good hotel hospitality. Good food/environment
Very informative and revealing workshop. I have a new opinion about disabled people
Very participatory and engaging approach. Competent facilitators.
The teaching was very insightful and educative. Well organised and supportive.
I like that it’s a very engaging workshop. I learnt a lot, new knowledge, skills and experience.
This is a life impactful workshop that I believe will change our perspectives and ways of seeing disabled people.
