Dear All,

 

I recently wrote an article on the topic of disability inclusion in the
leadership of the Internet Governance Forum (IGF). The article is captioned:
"Moving Beyond Tokenism: Why Disability Inclusion in IGF Leadership is
Critical for a Digital Future". It is available here:
https://igf-dcad.org/diversity-and-inclusion/

 

As Coordinator of the DCAD and an advocate for disability rights, I felt it
was important to raise awareness about the lack of representation of persons
with disabilities in the decision-making processes of IGF.

 

I welcome any feedback or thoughts that you or your colleagues may have on
the topic. It is my hope that by sharing this article, we can start a
productive dialogue on the importance of disability inclusion in IGF
leadership and work towards creating a more diverse and inclusive digital
future for everyone.

 

Best,

 

Dr. Muhammad Shabbir Awan,

Coordinator,
