Starting today!

So great to be here for the first meeting and GA of the African Disability Forum (ADF) in Nairobi. It’s taken a fair bit of work to get here, very much looking forward to the next few days and particularly the first African regional Global Disability Summit pre-summit. Well worth my 1st tweet in years.
