“I can’t look at things, but I can see them.” The words of Winston Fani, a blind tour guide from South Africa. He shares his journey with Alan Kasujja and explains he found himself working in an industry where very few professionals are living with disability. Winston is part of about 7.5% of South Africa’s population living with some form of disability, according to government data. Alan also chats with Ugandan tour operator Amos Wekesa about how accessible tourism destinations are on the African continent. The World Bank says Uganda’s tourism sector holds the key to creating jobs and increased foreign exchange earnings.
