The Albino Foundation(TAF) paid an advocacy visit to The C.A.D.E.T Academy Abuja, Nigeria.

The team was warmly received by the Founder/ Executive Director, Lola Aneke, and her staff.

“Discrimination Against Persons with Disabilities Prohibition Act (2018),” was intensely discussed.

The Albino Foundation and other 5 Organisations of Persons with Disabilities (OPDs) engaged the host on the content of the Disability Act and it is implementation, and recommendations were made on how to further develop the Disability Act, to suit the age group in the event of an amendment, as the Academy is suited for children with disabilities (early intervention).

Suggestions were also made regarding the accessibility of the facility and the employment of PWDs. They assured us of being open to expanding and enriching their policies.

A simplified version of the Discrimination Against Persons with Disabilities Act was presented to C.A.D.E.T and TAF looks forward to future collaborations.

ABOUT US

The Qualitative Magazine is the foremost Disability advocacy magazine in Nigeria. It is an educative, empowerment and informative disability advocacy magazine championed by persons with disabilities. Its advent is borne out of the necessity to fill the void left by the media to give the persons with disabilities and other less privileged persons a voice. It is designed to advocate for their rights and privileges of Persons With Disabilities in Nigeria and Africa and also to consciously push across, through advocacy those barriers and stereotypes within society that tend to limit people with disabilities(PWDs) and stifle their inherent potentials including enlightenment campaigns on the causes of disability such as POLIO, ACCIDENTS, WARS, RELIGIOUS CRISIS etc. This social entrepreneurship media outfit was conceived due to the stigmatization and discrimination faced by people with disabilities in Nigeria and Africa. It is an advocacy tool or public enlightenment campaign platform to change the mindset of the public about disability because if the public understand the situation, Disability Inclusion will improve and Persons With Disabilities will be able to participate in social, economic and political activities.
