Sharjah 24: Mohammed Al Nabulsi, who works as a Training and Development Officer at Sharjah City for Humanitarian Services, shared some important news about new reading materials designed for those who might struggle with complex texts, at the World Congress 2025 "We Are Inclusion". The city has developed special guidelines for creating simpler reading materials in Arabic, and anyone can access these resources on the city’s website.

He explained that these simpler readings are tools to help adults with intellectual disabilities better understand difficult information found in official documents or public services, whether at work, in schools, or elsewhere.

During a talk at the "We Are Inclusion" World Congress 2025, which kicked off recently, Al Nabulsi emphasized the need for all organizations to have specialists who can create documents that are easy to read. He urged everyone to work together on this important task.

The "We Are Inclusion", taking place at Expo Centre Sharjah until September 17, is a significant event organized by the City. It’s hosted every four years by Inclusion International, and this year it features 152 speakers, including experts and advocates from around the world, representing 74 countries and 125 organizations.
