Progress always seems to come at the cost of someone getting left behind, but as we enter a new age of the virtual world, it’s high time we change that. As creator of NFTY Collective, Giselle Mota works with brands and companies to ensure that people with disabilities are included in every step of the design process and metaverse experience.

In the same way that the Internet has created new opportunities for the disability community, Mota believes the metaverse has the potential to vastly benefit the lives of people with disabilities. “The metaverse holds plenty of opportunity to provide the disability community with skills and income.”
