The Disability Inclusion and Training Programme, organized by OIF Nigeria and Through The Roof, continued to make a profound impact on its participants on its second day. The event, held in Lagos, provided transformative sessions that challenged prejudice and biases surrounding people with disabilities.
The programme’s organisers successfully created a safe space for participants to engage in open and honest discussions, fostering empathy, love, and understanding. Through practical scenarios and real-life examples, attendees gained valuable insights into how to relate to and treat individuals living with disabilities.
A highlight of the day was the distribution of Audio Bible devices to participants who face sight challenges, enabling them to engage with the Bible in a new way. This thoughtful gesture was a testament to the programme’s commitment to inclusivity and empowerment.
Attendees were unanimous in their praise for the programme, describing the past two days as “life-changing.” As they eagerly anticipate the third and final day of the programme, it is clear that the Disability Inclusion and Training Programme has left an indelible mark on the lives of its participants.
The programme’s success is a testament to the power of education, empathy, and inclusivity in driving social change. As the participants return to their communities, they will undoubtedly carry with them the lessons and values imparted by the programme, creating a ripple effect of positivity and transformation.
