🚨 1 in 3 people globally need #AssistiveTechnology (AT) yet in the Pacific, only 10% have access. AT are essential tools that allow people to live independently & with dignity It's time to invest in AT and ensure no one is left behind. bit.ly/4eWRGvp #UnlockTheEveryday

Without affordable, accessible #AssistiveTechnology (AT), people with disabilities are locked out of society. We must do more to ensure everyone has the access to the AT they need, when they need it. 🌍 bit.ly/3Ym8lRU #UnlockTheEveryday

Societal stigma surrounding disability can lead to isolation & exclusion. These attitudes can make it difficult for individuals to feel seen and accepted. We all have a role in dismantling this stigma! #UnlockTheEveryday for everyone. bit.ly/40ligcZ

AT is more than a tool—it’s a lifeline that enables people with disabilities to work, study, and live more independently. Yet too many in the Pacific still can't access the AT they need. It’s time to #UnlockTheEveryday for everyone.🌍 bit.ly/3CSQcnv #IDPD
