WACC joins the call for #UNFCCC #COP30 to take binding action to uphold information integrity on climate change. Without accurate, trustworthy information, at the local level, forget about mobilizing public support for climate policy.

Nonspeakers do not need permission to communicate.
They need law to stop standing in their way.

Senator Fahy: Reverse the language.
Restore the bill.
Do the right thing

There is something almost surreal about reading a paper titled “Upholding Children’s Communication Rights” that argues for restricting access to a method some nonspeaking people use to communicate.

Logic of a circle

When a Company wants to say "no" for a while

All the while failing in their access guarantees

A month without comms is an eternity for some

An economic impairment unique to everyone reliant

A love defecit

Dangerous

Everyone deserves to be heard, understood, and respected. 🗣️ The Communication Bill of Rights empowers individuals to express themselves in every way possible. Let’s champion inclusion and accessibility for all. 💬 #CommunicationRights #InclusionMatters
Image of the Communication Bill of Rights, featuring 15 key rights for individuals with communication needs. The text highlights rights such as the ability to interact socially, access education, express feelings, and make choices.
