Disability in Wales and Africa (DWA) promote disability issues within the Wales Africa sector.  It seeks to see every development initiative, through Wales Africa Links, including the needs of disabled people.

Jonah Sialumano is the Project Manager of Health Help Zambia in Monze, which is supported by Health Help International based in Newport.  Jonah’s personal experience of disability, as well as his professional work with Disabled Community Groups, gives him insight and messages for us to consider in Wales.  He is currently on a tour of Wales, firstly to raise awareness of the needs of African disabled people within Wales and promote greater solidarity.
