The Centre for Employment of Persons with Disabilities (CEPD) and the Ghana Chamber for Entrepreneurs with Disabilities (GCED) have joined forces to celebrate the resilience, innovation, and invaluable contributions of women with disabilities, on the occasion of International Women's Day.
In a statement issued on March 8, 2025, the two organisations highlighted the unique challenges faced by women with disabilities.
These include "limited access to education, financial support, and inclusive business environments, as well as pervasive discrimination." Recognising these systemic barriers, CEPD and GCED advocate for inclusive policies that empower women entrepreneurs with disabilities. "CEPD joins GCED to celebrate women with disabilities on International Women's Day.
The Centre for Employment of Persons with Disabilities (CEPD) and the Ghana Chamber for Entrepreneurs with Disabilities (GCED) proudly recognize and celebrate the exceptional efforts and invaluable contributions of women with disabilities to national development," the statement said.
