AT Innovation and Impact Podcast.

Global Disability Innovation hub

This podcast is brought to you by the Global Disability Innovation Hub’s flagship AT2030 programme, funded by UK International Development.
In this series, we're embarking on a journey through the heart of Africa to explore a world where creativity and technology meet to challenge and change our understanding of disability.
We will spotlight the incredible work of Innovate Now, Africa’s first assistive technology accelerator, and the pioneering spirits behind its success. We’ll uncover how the AT innovation ecosystem in Africa is not just evolving but also revolutionising the way assistive technologies are perceived, developed, and adopted.
