International Day of People with Disability

December 2, 2025

A.G. Coombs supports International Day of People with Disability (IDPwD), observed globally on 3 December. This United Nations initiative promotes awareness, understanding and acceptance of people with disability, and encourages action to remove barriers to full participation in society.

The UN theme for 2025 is Fostering disability-inclusive societies for advancing social progress. It calls on governments, businesses and communities to work together to create fairer, more inclusive environments. This includes ensuring equal opportunities, accessible health care and education, and participation in all aspects of life. Removing physical, technological and attitudinal barriers is essential to achieving this goal.

We provide employees with the latest technology, tools and training to create a barrier-free workplace, including leadership and career growth programs.
