December 3 is the International Day of Persons with Disabilities, created in 1992 by the United Nations to promote understanding of disability issues and raise awareness for equal access for people with disabilities.  The theme for 2024 is “Amplifying the leadership of persons with disabilities for an inclusive and sustainable future.” 

Over 2 in 5 Nova Scotians have a disability. The Nova Scotia Accessibility Directorate has created a website to raise awareness about the experiences of disability in Nova Scotia, accessibility barriers, the Accessibility Act, and work happening across the province to become more inclusive. The website also includes a Resource Hub with video profiles of Nova Scotians with disabilities, posters, postcards, bookmarks, social media graphics, email banners, virtual backgrounds, webinars and more!
