Purple Voices: “Celebrating Human Diversity” is a curated collection of lived experiences of persons with disabilities, developed as part of the Purple Fair initiative. The e-book draws upon 21 short films representing the 21 disabilities recognised under the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (RPwD) Act, 2016, and presents real stories that reflect dignity, resilience, and inclusion.

The publication has been conceptualised and developed by the National Institute for Empowerment of Persons with Multiple Disabilities (NIEPMD) in collaboration with Trinayani, with the objective of creating an accessible, visually engaging, and narrative-driven resource that sensitises the public to disability through real stories rather than labels.

All video narratives featured in this e-book are courtesy of Trinayani and have been sourced from their Disability Awareness Website. The written profiles are based on these films and accompanying descriptions, complemented by high-resolution stills drawn from the original videos.

Purple Voices: “Celebrating Human Diversity” affirms a simple truth: inclusion begins by listening and every voice matters.
