Happy International Day of Sign Languages! As we continue Deaf Awareness Month under the theme “Declaring Deaf People’s Human Rights,” we celebrate the power of sign languages to make communication more equitable and accessible. Sign languages are an important part of language, identity, culture, and community connection, helping people who are deaf or hard of hearing access information, services, and opportunities, connect, contribute and belong. Let’s continue championing access to national sign languages and a world where everyone can communicate, participate and belong. 💙🤟🏽 #InternationalDayOfSignLanguages #DeafAwarenessMonth #DeafAwareness #SignLanguage #Accessibility #Inclusion

This week, we were delighted to welcome the National Council for Persons with Disabilities team, led by Dr Michael Munene, to Likoni School for the Blind. The team enjoyed interacting with students and seeing firsthand how technology is supporting digital learning. It was exciting to see students put their digital skills into practice. Grades 1 and 2 demonstrated their keyboarding skills, while Grades 4, 5 and 6 showcased advanced typing and formatting using the Kenya Education Cloud as they prepare for KPSEA. We also shared more about the school’s Python programming training, highlighting its accessibility, readability and widespread use in technology. By introducing students to coding, the Python lessons open up new opportunities to explore technology, creativity, and future possibilities. Mr Sammy, a senior teacher with a visual impairment, demonstrated how Chromebooks and assistive technology are helping integrate ICT into the CBC curriculum and create a more inclusive learning experience. 💙 A lovely reminder of how accessible technology opens doors for students. 🎉 #InclusiveEducation #DigitalAccessibility #AssistiveTechnology #Accessibility #inABLEImpact #StoriesOfAccess #AccessInAction

Janet’s educational journey has taken a different path from that of many of her peers. At 25, she is a blind student with a physical and profound sensory disability, and her journey through education continues to be unique. Yet, in a quiet corner of her Grade 6 classroom at Thika Primary School for the Blind, Janet is finding new ways to learn, participate and connect with the world around her. Her story is a beautiful reminder of the power of perseverance, creativity and patience and of what becomes possible when people are given the right support and opportunities to learn and thrive. 💙 Learn more about Janet’s journey here: inable.org/2026/09/10/when-b… #InclusiveEducation #DigitalAccessibility #AssistiveTechnology #Accessibility #inABLEImpact #StoriesOfAccess #AccessInAction

The inABLE team had an amazing time taking part in the 32nd ARSO General Assembly, held under the theme “Standards Enabling Intra-Africa Trade under the AfCFTA – One Certificate Working for You.” During the Eco Mark Africa Certification & Voluntary Sustainability Standards session, @JSupercharge highlighted the importance of embedding accessibility and disability inclusion into sustainability standards and certification. He emphasised that digital accessibility is both a right and a business opportunity, and highlighted an opportunity for ARSO and inABLE to align African standards with global accessibility standards, helping locally produced products and services become more accessible and competitive in global markets. #DigitalAccessibility #DisabilityInclusion #Accessibility #Sustainability #ARSO #AfCFTA #InclusiveAfrica #Standards

A warm welcome to the AssistiveMath team, who joined us at inABLE this week for a courtesy visit as our partnership grows. As the winner of our 2025 Innovations Award, they are making mathematics accessible for learners with visual impairments and equipping teachers with the tools and know-how to build genuinely inclusive classrooms. Maths has long been one of the hardest subjects to make accessible. Seeing it opened up to more learners is exactly the kind of innovation this continent needs. We're glad to be walking this journey together, and excited for the impact ahead. 😊 👏 #InclusiveAfrica2025 #AssistiveTechnology #EdTech #InclusiveEducation #Accessibility

Yesterday we held our Mandazi Monthly (yes, that's what we call it)—inABLE's monthly gathering where we learn together, collaborate across programs, and strengthen the communities we serve. A field officer shared feedback from communities on what access to assistive technology means to them. A digital innovation team member discussed how young people use online learning tools and where barriers still exist. A policy advocate brought insights from government conversations. Someone from our education work outlined what communities told us about their needs. Another shared a success story: a young person hired, earning, respected. These conversations shape everything we do. They centre the voices of communities and young people in how we make decisions. We discussed what we are hearing across all our programs: assistive technology, digital accessibility, community rehabilitation, employment, policy. Connected. Integrated. All serving the same goal. We celebrated progress. We identified where we need to adjust our approach. We made decisions rooted in what communities are telling us. That is how we stay grounded in our work. By listening. By learning together. By letting the communities we serve guide what comes next. #Learning #Collaboration #CommunityStrength #DisabilityInclusion
