During a @IDA_CRPD_Forum briefing, Catalina Devandas Aguilar, @UN Special Rapporteur on the Rights of Persons w/Disabilities, shared that a hotline for people w/disability like @KeystoneMoldova has in place, is an important support tool-but unfortunately, such services are rare.
We're still here, working to support people with disability around the world, and sharing important content from partners and friends. Remember to follow @Keystone_KHS, since this account will go quiet in June. #staysafe
1⃣ Inform clearly
Easy to understand information is important.
Especially when there are many, often conflicting, news and information.

Excellent BBL on the Missing Billions: Access to Inclusive Health for Persons with Disabilities @SDG3 #InclusionMatters @WorldBank @PhyllisHeydt @SpecialOlympics @AlghaibOla
People w/ IDD have 16 years lower life expectancy often not due to their disability but due to limited access to health care, stigma and exclusion, or comorbidity. Can't meet #SDG3 without including people w/ disability. #MissingBillion #InclusiveHealth @hughes_kristin @WorldBank

We welcome Michele Keogh as the 2020 Chair of the Board of Directors. Michele will build on the stewardship of past Chair Donald Witman, & will #lead the Board through the first year of a new strategic plan. Learn more about our services in Moldova & India bit.ly/KHSIhome
Insightful discussions around #InclusiveEducation this morning with Diane Richler @GLAD_Net, Joshua Josa @USAID & @McNhlapo @WorldBank. What does education system need so that ALL children are included? Will children with intellectual and developmental #disability be #included?
Learning, #education, and access to nutritious foods are crucial for children to thrive. We must promote education for all. #InclusiveEducation #EducationOutLoud
Communities cannot rise out of #poverty if their children do not thrive.
To measure child development worldwide, @food4thehungry is sharing 3 case studies using IDELA, a holistic tool that measures 4 key areas of early childhood learning. 📓 bit.ly/31o6gqN
Today's @USAID convo w/Dr. Michael Kremer reminded us of the impact of real change at scale. To get there:
1. Take time to find the real causes of the problem.
2. Embrace humility, be willing to be wrong & seek other solutions.
4. #innovation requires risk. #globaldev #inclusion
