Ahead of the International Day of Persons with Disabilities on December 3, Sahapedia announced on Saturday that it is organising a series of multi-city events for persons with special needs, in partnership with UNESCO.

The events will focus on the theme of empowering persons with disabilities and ensuring inclusiveness and equality.

"The main aim of these engagements is to enhance the experience of persons with disabilities, so they are not excluded from involvement with India's rich heritage," said Sahapedia Secretary Vaibhav Chauhan.

A series of events are being organised in five cities: Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Amritsar and Bhubaneswar.

In all of the cities, Sahapedia has collaborated with local partners such as The Maker's Collaborative (Kolkata), Access for ALL (Mumbai) and the Partition Museum (Amritsar), to execute these activities.
