For most people, reaching the summit of Mount Everest would be the culmination of the ultimate fantasy trek. But in 2000, when Francis Slakey (C'85) stood on Everest's summit, it was just one of 11 steps in his quest to be the first person to both climb the highest mountain on every continent and surf every ocean. The story of how he accomplished this goal is now a feature in the Georgetown Magazine: j.mp/YWTgTZ on.fb.me/11Vrawu

Leading the agenda for change
Not being able to access WASH services means that people with disabilities (PwD) are unable to realise their rights to water and sanitation and can be further excluded from living their lives.
Within Yayasan Plan International Indonesia’s (YPII) ‘WASH and Beyond –Transforming Lives in Eastern Indonesia’ project, Edge Effect, YPII and Plan International Australia are working directly with PwD in Sumbawa and Manggarai districts through a Participatory Action Research (PAR) process to support marginalised individuals, including PWD, to explore and genuinely lead their own agenda for change.
Across the PAR groups there has been consensus on the ‘perfect’ toilet for PwD. It would include handrails, good signage, texture on the floor, clean water, a toilet seat, good lighting, a door with an easy-to-use lock, clean soap, and be wide, easily flushable, and easy to get to.
PAR group participants have commented on the value of coming together to meet, voice and share their experiences, and of leading their own WASH actions for change.
