Strength in Disability




We're all privy to the inhumane treatment a portion of our society has been subjected to over the period in the name of DISABILITY.

Strength In Disability is a joint effort of GADRES- KNUST and other institutions, which seeks to educate the society on how important PLWDs are to the society; and the fact that having a disability does not make you less human.

Follow us on our various social media platforms and sit back and be thrilled with our various articles and updates of conferences ahead of the release of our debut series; Strength In Disability!
