Some thoughts on being autistic by Mika.

02/04/2026

On World Autism Day we amplify autistic voices.

It's Autism Acceptance Month. Arguments over my right to exist and how and where I am included are somehow still common. My worth is undervalued, words doubted, humanity questioned. We have work to do. I love and accept all of me. That isn't an act that comes easily in a world that relentlessly tells me I am the wrong kind of human. It takes an effort to be an ally. This Autism Acceptance Month, center disabled voices. Unlearn harmful myths and prejudices. Challenge those on the outside looking in. They are not the authority on autism. We are defining ourselves.

We will keep working towards a world where love and acceptance for nonspeakers and unreliable speakers is the norm.

How do you describe a day so full of love, acceptance, connections and learning? The first S2C Africa Summit was so much more than just a conference. We are already looking forward to the next one.

I’m honoured to be sharing the stage with changemakers from around the world, in partnership with I-ASC, Inner Voice, Autism Centre Heidelberg, the Sisu Hub, and Spell It Out. This summit is more than a conference; it’s a movement for communication, inclusion, and connection across Africa!

Because communication should ALWAYS be available. Come and hear Noma and Aya’s advice for communication at home.

We are so excited to hear Akha present at the S2C Africa summit.

Spelling to Communicate (S2C) empowers nonspeakers to overcome communication barriers posed by traditional oral communication by pointing to letters on a board as an alternative means of communication. By teaching the motor skills necessary to point on a letterboard positioned in front of them, nonspeakers improve motor planning and control, enabling them to communicate their thoughts and ideas quickly and accurately.

As a proud nonspeaker we are excitedthat he will be sharing the stage with changemakers from around the world, in partnership with I-ASC, Inner Voice, Autism Centre Heidelberg, the Sisu Hub, and Spell It Out. This summit is more than a conference; it’s a movement for communication, inclusion, and connection across Africa!

We hope to see you there, joining us in making Africa a more accessible place for all nonspeakers.
