 across UN and other agencies and Governments and for solidarity between peoples and groups to work together on inclusion of people with disabilities.

 by neglected tropical diseases, as these relate to people with disabilities and their families, that are innovative and practical – and even provocative with a focus on learning for all the participants. We particularly encourage presentations from under-represented
 groups and presentations in unusual and innovative formats.  Whatever the format, we expect all the presentations to be participative and engaging – creating dialogue with one another, not just talking at people!</span><o:p></o:p></p>
