[PDFlist] [PDF-members] Announcement from the Pacific Disability Forum Board

[Ben Clare]

Thanks so much for sharing the announcement. A bit of sadness, a lot of gratitude, along with prayers and good wishes are what I'm feeling right now. Our dear friend may not officially be the PDF CEO after 30 June but his amazing work as a disability advocate which has transformed the disability movement Pacific wide and globally will live on through the continued advancement of the PDF, all started by a great visionary and tireless advocate for disability rights and inclusion.

Vinaka vakailevu for all that has been contributed, often with personal cost and sacrifice.
