Botswana Federation of the Disabled Reaches Community Through Pop-Up and Wellness Day

On 4 June 2025, the Botswana Federation of the Disabled (BOFOD) held an Assistive Technology Pop-Up event in Gaborone to mark World Assistive Technology Day. The event brought AT suppliers, manufacturers, healthcare professionals and community members together for hands-on demonstrations and open discussion. A follow-up Wellness Day on 26 June extended the conversation to duty bearers and policymakers. Together, the two events reached around 100 people and helped build a wider community of support for assistive technology users in Botswana.
