Beyond Disability: Building a Truly Inclusive World | Special Interview

What does true inclusion really mean?In this episode, Archita Puranik speaks with Madhu Krishnan, founder of Inclusive World, about her remarkable journey from a successful career in technology to building a nonprofit dedicated to empowering individuals with developmental and intellectual disabilities.Madhu shares how a chance encounter with families of children on the autism spectrum led her to create programs that focus on abilities rather than limitations. The conversation explores common misconceptions about disability, the impact of low expectations, the importance of meaningful participation, and how inclusive communities can transform lives.From inspiring success stories to practical insights on creating opportunities for all, this episode is a powerful reminder that inclusion is not about simply sharing space—it's about ensuring everyone has the opportunity to learn, contribute, belong, and thrive.Guest: Madhu KrishnanHost/Producer: Archita Puranik Sound: Mahesh R.
