The Fiji Disabled People’s Association will be organizing a media workshop at the FTU Hall in Suva tomorrow.

FDPA president Akuila Rewatabua says the aim is to raise awareness among media personnel on the Convention of Disability’s Rights.

Rewatabua says the convention has been signed by government and people now need to be well informed on the issue.

“We’ll be looking at 20 participants from all media outlets so that after this workshop we’ll be able to carry out awareness program on the convention so that people in Fiji can be aware of and also know the important of it to people with disability.”
