In this episode, they talk about: The reality of railway accessibility for wheelchair users Accessibility challenges while travelling in India Jalaj’s road accident and how it changed his life Why road safety awareness matters before an accident happens Jalaj’s work through People and Purpose Foundation Creating awareness around road safety The gap between disability policies and lived reality Problems they see in existing disability-related policies Why implementation matters as much as creating policies What could be done differently to make systems more inclusive The importance of listening to people with lived experience Advocacy and the role individuals and organisations can play in creating change Accessibility as an everyday issue rather than an occasional conversation *About Disability On Disability* Disability On Disability is a conversation series where two people with disabilities sit down and discuss the issues that affect their lives and their community, from their own perspectives. Sometimes they agree. Sometimes they don’t. And that’s the point. The more perspectives we hear, the better we understand disability beyond stereotypes. Because no single person can represent the experiences or opinions of an entire community. *Watch the full episode here: *https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGJ7YtYgAos With regards, The Dil Se Abled Team Changing How We See Disability.
