I am one of the 2.5 billion people worldwide who need one or more assistive products. Without my glasses, I miss details that most people take for granted. I am fortunate to have access to regular eye care and to be able to replace my glasses when needed. But for millions of people around the world, the assistive technology they need is simply out of reach. On this #WorldATDay, I urge ALL countries to prioritise investment in making assistive technology accessible and affordable for everyone. When people have access to the tools they need, their quality of life and productivity can improve dramatically. Access to assistive technology is not a luxury. This is why I am happy to be part of #MeAndMyAT movement. Join us!
