I will like to thank the Foundation for everything they did today, the inclusive entrepreneurship and legal discussion was truly impactful. We learnt the various ways to monetize the social media to suit our abilities and need to work together as one. From the legal right education I know that how to best protect myself show I face any discrimination at my work place.

I am very happy to have attended today's gathering and I appreciate the foundation for organizing this impactful event. I personally learnt a lot today because though I am knowledgeable about online/social media marketing, I still face a lot of barriers due my special ability. Today's session was through motivating and I have new marketing ideas I will love to try out soon.

Event Highlights

YOUR HEALTH. YOUR BODY. YOUR RIGHT TO BE INFORMED.

It started under the vibrant energy of Rio de Janeiro at the AIDS 2026 Global Village, but the heart of our mission has always been at home. We carried that global momentum straight into the community in Port Harcourt, Nigeria, turning international dialogue into local action.

This wasn't just a formal report; it was a continuation of a real conversation. We created a safe, inclusive space where women and girls with disabilities could lead the narrative—learning, asking the tough questions, and sharing lived experiences that often go unheard in traditional healthcare settings.
