Monitoring & evaluation
Tracking commitments beyond the event itself
A final report will set out a follow-up mechanism for recommendations and commitments — potentially including an African Observatory for Assistive Technology, involving regional institutions and civil society, including AT users and OPDs.
ATscale, through its Geneva Secretariat, will support this mechanism and share an update on progress at the opening of AT EXPO AFRICA 2029.
