It was created to show how important it is to include everyone, give everyone the same chances, and recognize the accomplishments of disabled people. It's important to remember that everyone has dreams and goals that are worth following, no matter how smart or physically capable they are.

All day long, the theme "Dream, Believe, Achieve" has been a reminder that goals can come true if you believe and work hard enough. It tells disabled people to have big dreams, believe in their skills, and work hard to reach their targets.

Promoting equality and openness to everyone

The goal of the International Day of Disabled Achievements is not only to recognize the amazing things that people with disabilities have done but also to promote acceptance and fair chances.
