Sakhisizwe - Today is the International day for persons with disabilities

On Sakhisizwe today, we were broadcasting live from the University of the Western Cape as part of the 16 Days of Activism for No Violence Against Women and Children campaign. The Western Cape Network on Disability and the City of Cape Town hosted the International day for persons with disabilities. The theme for this year was breaking barriers for an inclusive society for all through knowing and claiming your rights.
