Graphic with the CBM Global logo and a quote from Jay Nasilasila of the Fiji Disabled Peoples Federation. The quote reads: “Volunteers are trained in inclusive communication practices and how to adapt warnings to different accessibility needs. We’ve also delivered warnings via video conferencing with sign language—a key adaptation for the Deaf community.” A circular photo of Jay, smiling and wearing a green shirt, appears in the bottom right corner.
