F Njahîra Wangarî - Book Chapter

Abstract
"This chapter blends African oral and written narratives, lived experiences with a genetic chronic disability and a Roman Catholic upbringing. These will be interrogated to illustrate the role of alternative explanations in influencing advocacy and activism for the lives, wellbeing, dignity and inclusion of persons with disabilities. Particularly, this chapter is an exploration of self-identity and how persons with disabilities are conditioned to view ourselves in specific ways while highlighting alternative perceptions available is presented by the author. It engages the works of several African and African-descendent authors who feature persons with disabilities as characters in their books and relies on narrative prosthesis as the basis for this engagement."

Event Description

Member States created 21 targets across 12 SDGS with an accelerated 2020 timeline. These targets all have strong links with the rest of the Agenda, so meaningful progress in the 2020 targets will advance the Agenda as a whole; at the same time, durable success in the 2020 targets will be possible only with achievements across the SDGs. As the global community prepares to take stock of progress across the 2030 Agenda at the High Level Political Forum(HLPF), these targets that fall due in 2020 merit specific attention.

The webinar will provide information, in a series of mini panels and presentations by custodian agencies and other champions, on the state of individual 2020 targets and plans for accelerating implementation.

REGISTER BY 3 JULY 2020!
