Editor, RE: “Do not leave us behind, people with disabilities tell EA govts” (The New Times, February 13). Such an important article – it’s vital that disabled are not left behind. We’re excited to have launched a new disability project in Northern Uganda, directly benefiting 4,500 vulnerable and disabled people. We plan to share lessons learned from the project with all of our African country programmes, upskilling staff across the organization and raising awareness of the barriers and additional difficulties faced by people living with a disability.
