Mombasa City has been selected to host the first African Congress on Disability. This comes at a time where disability mainstreaming is a top agenda in the County Government of Mombasa.
Earlier today, the County government of Mombasa welcomed this exciting opportunity announcing that the Congress will be held on 24th_27th July 2019 at the Pride Inn Paradise Convention Centre, Shanzu.
The Congress has also ignited serious conversations on the ability of the city of Mombasa to attract and host Persons with Disabilty (PWDs) as an inclusive tourist destination.
The department of Trade, Tourism and Investment with the leadership of Hon. Rashid will work with all stakeholders in the tourism value chain to ensure disability mainstreaming in all our services.
The Congress will attract over 500 delegates from over 30 countries across the world and will also share experiences and knowledge on developing a disability inclusive destination.
