Seven-year-old Umarjon from Tajikistan often misses his preschool classes to receive treatment for his visual impairment. As he prepares to start his first year of school, Umarjon should have access to a classroom that welcomes and supports him. Children with disabilities often lack services and adequate legislation to protect their rights. We must work together to build an inclusive and accessible world where every child is empowered, protected and respected. #ForEveryChild, an inclusive education. #LetMeLearn
