Sabriye does amazing work and @kanthari is an organisation I am proud to support in my constituency. They have trained social entrepreneurs brilliantly. Well worth listening to this courageous woman on @SmitaTharoor’s podcast!
Is Blindness a bad word? Do we have to say visually challenged instead? Sabriye Tenberken says she isn’t visually challenged -she’s #blind which makes her challenged in a different way in the way she uses her brain. tharoorassociates.com/storie… @Kantharis #unconsciousbias

This was so fast-moving & fascinating. I had never considered how much more a blind person can see compared to many sighted people. Clearly my own #UnconsciousBias to forget about that rich inner life which illuminates & enlightens. Thank you, Sabriye & Smita!

#fridayfirsts features Fellow Sabriye Tenberken. Diagnosed with a degenerative retinal disease at age 9, going blind never slowed her down. She developed Tibetan Braille, and has founded THREE organizations. Check out her most recent venture @Kantharis nationalgeographic.com/news/…

"Education is a human right, a public good and a public responsibility." Today, 262 million children still do not attend school. A lot of them are street-connected children. That’s why we developed mobile school carts, to bring the school to the streets #EducationDay – at Louvain, Belgium

Civil society groups, NGOs & social activists are in NO way anti-national. They are an essential constituent of our democracy. To label them anti-national because they're agitating, protesting & opposing so-called "development" projects is atrocious & must be vigorously resisted!

An insightful day at @Kantharis; Could not take my eyes off these pieces of #upcycled #art by Olutosin Ruth, Kanthari alumnus in Nigeria, who works with survivors of domestic violence in poor communities by skilling them to transform trash into art!
