Accra, Ghana - January 27, 2025 - In a groundbreaking stride toward inclusion and educational equity, the Africa Dyslexia Organization [https://africadyslexia.org/]has officially launched the 2025 Dyslexia Advocates Fellowship Program. This initiative unites 246 passionate changemakers from 35 African nations, all dedicated to dismantling barriers, eradicating stigma, and opening doors for people with dyslexia-a community whose potential often goes untapped due to widespread misunderstanding.

Dyslexia in Africa: A Silent Struggle

Across Africa, millions of children and adults with dyslexia remain undiagnosed or misunderstood, often labeled as lazy or unintelligent. With limited awareness and resources for learning disabilities, these individuals are denied the support they need to thrive.

The Dyslexia Advocates Fellowship is tackling this challenge head-on. Through grassroots leadership and community-driven solutions, the program empowers local advocates to lead the charge for inclusion and visibility.

For Rosalin Abigail Kyere-Nartey, the Founder and Executive Director of the Africa Dyslexia Organization, this mission is deeply personal. "I couldn't read or write until I was 17, not because I wasn't capable, but because no one knew I was dyslexic," she shares. "This fellowship is my promise to ensure no one else faces that same isolation."

Meet the 2025 Cohort: Champions of Inclusion

This year's cohort is a powerful collective of teachers, healthcare workers, entrepreneurs, policy advocates, and other professionals. While their backgrounds are diverse, they share a unified vision: creating a future where learning differences like dyslexia are recognized, supported, and celebrated.

The fellowship equips these leaders with advanced training in:

*
Multi-sensory teaching methods to foster inclusive classrooms.

*
Community mobilization to build local support networks.

*
Policy advocacy to push for workplace and educational reforms.

These changemakers will return to their communities ready to lead initiatives that transform schools, workplaces, and family dynamics-breaking cycles of exclusion that have hindered neurodiverse individuals for generations.

A Movement Rooted in Grassroots Leadership

What makesthe Dyslexia Advocates Fellowship unique in the space of adult empowerment around dyslexia is the commitment to equipping local leaders with an acute understanding of the dyslexia crisis in their own community. This is not a top-down initiative; this is agrassroots movement, constructed on the idea that real change must come from the inside.

Kyere-Nartey explains, "Ourfellows are architects of change. "They are redefining what living withdyslexia in Africa means, showing that it is not a hurdle but an advantage."
