Road to Kasama

A Journey of Discovery


"We went to Zambia to listen and to learn and to amplify the voices of people with disability that live there, as they deserve to have their lived experiences heard. They know what they need - but they need people to listen, and to have a crack at doing better." - Dylan



This partnership with World Vision, aims to shed light on the challenges faced by individuals living with disability in some of the world's most vulnerable communities.


"Road to Kasama" follows Dylan Alcott AO as he embarks on a transformative journey to Kasama, Zambia, exploring the daily lives, struggles, and triumphs of people with disability. The documentary highlights the importance of inclusion and accessibility, emphasising that every individual, regardless of ability, deserves equal opportunities.

We at the Dylan Alcott Foundation are thrilled to have been a part of this journey allowing us to come together to listen, learn, and witness firsthand the support needed for young people living with disability worldwide. We look forward to continuing to challenge perceptions and unconscious bias all around the world.

"Met some absolute legends on this trip and feel very lucky people let us into their homes and communities to try and amplify their voices and their lived experience of living with disability in Southern Africa." - Dylan
