Hope Alive For Possibilities Initiative - HAPI

Hope Alive for Possibilities Initiative (HAPI) was represented by our Admin Officer, Idowu Adebayo Omeiza, at the event themed “Role and Impact of Agriculture on Women with Disabilities” organized by Advocacy for Women with Disabilities Initiative in Abuja on 7th May 2026.

The event provided an important platform for discussions on the contributions, challenges, and opportunities for women with disabilities within the agricultural sector. Conversations emphasized the need for inclusive agricultural policies, accessible training opportunities, financial inclusion, and equal participation in agricultural development and decision-making processes.

It was insightful to engage with researchers, government representatives, development partners, advocates, and women with disabilities whose resilience and leadership continue to drive change despite existing barriers.

At HAPI, we remain committed to advancing disability inclusion, gender equality, and sustainable development by amplifying the voices and participation of persons with disabilities across all sectors, including agriculture.

Today, we wrapped up Day 2 of our training on climate leadership, mitigation, adaptation, and advocacy for young persons with disabilities — and the atmosphere in the room said everything.

It was engaging, insightful, interactive, and full of honest conversations, shared experiences, laughter, learning, teamwork and growing confidence among participants.

It was encouraging to see many young persons with disabilities, actively contributing, asking questions, and seeing themselves as part of climate action and advocacy.

Our facilitators did an excellent job simplifying complex topics and creating a space where everyone felt seen, heard, and involved.

We appreciate Disability Rights Fund (DRF) for supporting this initiative and investing in inclusive climate leadership.
