Steven and Shaun take Double Tap to Nairobi for more coverage of the Inclusive Africa Conference. The episode features three compelling interviews: motivational speaker and entrepreneur Palesa Mosiea shares her powerful journey of self-acceptance and her mission to elevate disabled talent through a new agency; and Meta’s Maxine Williams, VP of Accessibility and Engagement, reveals how blind users have become the top adopters of Meta’s Ray-Ban smart glasses.

Later, Google’s Christopher Patnoe joins to explain how AI tools like Gemini and SignGemma are expanding inclusion and accessibility, particularly across Africa. With discussions on bioptic driving aids, language accessibility, and future XR devices, this episode highlights how community-driven design and emerging tech can transform lives.
