Today, we celebrate the Deaf individuals who have shaped history and inspire us to see possibility beyond barriers.

Human Rights Day: It’s Time for Real Change 🌍✊ On this Human Rights Day, let’s reflect on the importance of inclusivity for everyone regardless of ability. People with disabilities face barriers every day, from accessing basic services to feeling truly valued in society. It’s not about charity; it’s about human rights. Every person deserves equal opportunities, whether it’s in education, employment, or even something as simple as getting their morning coffee without a struggle. As we strive for a more inclusive world, let’s start with ourselves. With inclusive technologies and systems, we can ensure that everyone has the support and access they deserve. Human rights belong to all of us. Let's make inclusivity the norm. 💙✨ #HumanRightsDay #InclusionMatters #DisabilityRights #AccessibilityForAll #EqualOpportunities #InclusiveWorld #BreakBarriers #RightsForAll #MakeItHappen Ali Shabbar Wamiq Hasan Abdul Qadeer Risham Arif Raja Muhammad Taha Khan Abid Gul Nazia Intizar saira shaheen Zaheer Khan Ali Haider Kubbra Maroof
