A new study by the Datum Initiative and Arrow looks at the structural, social and institutional barriers women and girls with disabilities face, particularly around sexual and reproductive health and rights, healthcare access, education and social stigma.

Astro Awani’s Melisa Idris talks to Dr Vilashini Somiah, the co-founder of the Datum Initiative, Adhura H Farouk, a senior economist and partnership executive at Serunai Commerce, and autistic gender-disability activist Beatrice Leong.
