Learners with disabilities continue to face challenges in accessing education, with a growing demand for attention to the specific needs of deaf learners, those with visual impairments, and wheelchair users.

The Mayor of Lüderitz, Brigitte Fredericks, has called for a more inclusive Namibia, where persons with disabilities are empowered and fully integrated into society.

She made this appeal during the opening of the National Disability Week in Lüderitz.
