APDKmourns the passing of Mr. Fredrick Owako, former Chairperson of the APDK Board of Directors.
His leadership and invaluable contribution to APDK and the disability sector will remain part of his lasting legacy. May his soul Rest in Peace. – at Nairobi, Kenya
Absolutely. Accessibility should not be an afterthought in Nairobi's urban planning. – at Nairobi, Kenya
If you've ever walked through Nairobi CBD, you know just how overwhelming it can get.
The bodas, car congestion, narrow walkways and the constant struggle to navigate through people and obstacles.
Now imagine experiencing this as a person with a disability.
Article 54 of our Constitution guarantees PWDs the right to reasonable access to all places and public transport.
As we work towards a modern, organised pedestrian friendly Nairobi, we need accessible crossing points, wider and unobstructed pavements, and urban planning that considers PWD needs from the very beginning. #VIP

Getting a job should not mean enduring ableism to keep it. Kenya’s Persons with Disabilities Act, 2025, protects employees against disability discrimination. – at Nairobi, Kenya

The inABLE Team had a wonderful time being a part of the Disability-Inclusive Employment Summit 2026, organised by @RizikiSource, under the theme 'Breaking Systemic Barriers to Meaningful Employment for Persons with Disabilities.'
Our Programs Director, Charles Warria, moderated a panel session on 𝗔𝘀𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝘆: 𝗧𝗼𝗼𝗹𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗦𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗜𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗘𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗼𝘆𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁. The conversation touched on how we can all play a role in improving access to assistive technology and why persons with disabilities need to be part of shaping the solutions designed for them.
One thing is clear: creating inclusive workplaces takes all of us! It means working together, making assistive technology more accessible and creating opportunities for persons with disabilities to bring their skills and talents to the workplace. Together, we can make a difference! 💙

Disability-related costs don't disappear because a household is poor.
In Kenya, poverty among persons with disabilities fell from 45.7% in 2019 to 38% in 2023. Progress matters, but too many people still face barriers to basic needs.
