The final Action Plan presenter was Marcos Lima 🇧🇷, founder of @HistoriasDeCego and VP of @urece.ec, who presented his plan to bridge the gap between people with and without disabilities in Brazil through communication. “In Brazil, there are 45 million people with disabilities. That’s more people than Argentina, Cambodia, Latvia, and Namibia—more than any single state in the U.S. These people face inadequate education and less than 1% are employed. Disability affects me in many ways, but it doesn’t define me as a person. As people with disabilities, we are not looking to be fixed. We are looking to be accepted. We are fighting for inclusion, not for healing. My fight is for an inclusive world.” #S4C2018 #sport4all #sportsdiplomacy #inclusion #brazil #urece #blindsport
