Although, worldwide, dyslexia impacts on at least 10% of the population, it has no legislative status here in New Zealand. The Statistics Dept gathers no data about it and the Human Rights Commission is largely silent about it. Our education sector as a whole does little to nothing to meet the needs of children with dyslexia. Children with dyslexia grow up to be adults with dyslexia. By interviewing individuals in New Zealand with dyslexia, from all walks of life, with a range of interesting stories, we can help make dyslexia more visible. #dyslexia #success #learn #education #newzealand
