They often face triple jeopardy being disabled, their gender and unemp — Florence Mudzingwa

"The subjects I excelled in were Human and Social Biology, English, Integrated Science, Home Management and Commerce"

"The love and support of family.They made me believe that I can be anything in life as long as I work towards it."

"I did not face any challenges in primary school because the school I attended, St. Giles Primary School, accommodated children with disabilities only. Therefore I did not feel any different. The only challenge was with my disability because I was born with brittle bones."

"At this school, a person could only write five subjects with female students taking up home management while males did biology but I chose to do both. The reason was because I was weak in mathematics so this strategy then helped me to attain five Ordinary levels"

"Being a woman born with a disability I could relate to the challenges women and girls with disabilities face that drove me to establish the organisation. The girl child with a disability is marginalised in society, often bringing in a sense of hopelessness"

"So I had to be careful of how I did things. If I fell or had any slight accident, I would easily get a fracture on the leg or arm"
