Janis McDavid (25), born without arms and legs, is a famous motivational speaker in Germany. Janis is in Sri Lanka on a two-week visit.
The aim of his coming here is to create greater sensitivity towards the untapped potential of disabled people in Sri Lanka, through his presence and lectures.

He further aims to talk about values, morality, responsibilities and possibilities and furthermore to motivate the key decision makers here by his attitude and inspire to achieve great things even with significant physical limitations.
He is a Business Economics undergraduate at Witten/Herdecke University in Germany.
