The project aims to help spread a culture of environmental accessibility. The idea of an accessible environment – a world in which no one, regardless of their physical or cognitive condition, encounters any more architectural or technological or social barriers that affect their mobility, limit their relationships, and prevent their full realization as persons and as citizens – can no longer be confined to utopia. Today, this must become a reality: this is a prerequisite for the realization of an inclusive society.

The webinar will share the experiences of innovative projects from around the world from disabled persons, their families, and activists and professionals from the sector. People will speak in various languages and subtitling will be provided in five languages: English, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish and French. You can select your preferred language while watching the webinar, by clicking on the “settings” icon (gear wheel) placed at the bottom right of the video screen (these instructions will be also provided at the beginning of the webinar).
