APD George

This Youth Day, let’s shift the question. Instead of asking, “What barriers do young people with disabilities face?”

What if we asked: What are we missing by not listening closely enough?
Across the Western Cape, young people with disabilities are:
• Reimagining education.
• Building businesses.
• Creating culture in ways that challenge the ordinary.
• Leading conversations that move us all forward.

They’re not waiting for a seat at the table. They’re redesigning the table itself. Youth Day is about courage.

Today, courage looks like building systems that don’t ask young people to squeeze in but shift, adapt, and grow because of them.

Let’s move from inclusion as an afterthought to inclusion as a starting point.

Gardening 🪏👩‍🌾
Our adult men are hard at work cleaning green beans, while the adult women are busy transplanting onion seedlings 🌱 🧅 Together, they are contributing to the growth and success of our garden project!

When people with disabilities are excluded from education, it reflects a complex, progressive and ongoing social process of being 'excluded'.

Children excluded from education are often also excluded from developmental benefits in general.

We must invest in education for everyone, including children and youth with disabilities. Our future depends on it!"
