      • The problem

        Even in 2021, disability awareness and inclusion remains an unsolved issue, mainly due to 3 factors:

        • Lack of information on disability rights
        • Limited awareness regarding disability & prevalence of stereotypes
        • Limited integration of disabled people in society 

        The Athens hub's "Disability awareness & inclusion" project aims to address the issue with 3 initiatives:

        • Disability Awareness Survey: Record perspectives towards disability and assess the current levels of awareness
        • Disability Awareness Campaign Shooting (through videos)
        • Formation of accessible material for disability employment rights

        The goals of this project are the following:

        • Increased awareness among people on disability
        • Disruption of stereotypes about disability
        • Awareness of disability rights among disabled people

        Our solution

        Our goal is to create a campaign that will convey a resounding message across our country and even across the globe. We aim to raise public awareness on disability and promote the equal participation in society of people with disabilities.


        Our team is working on solutions to the following problems:

         

        1. Lack of data on disability in Greece

        We are running a survey about perspectives towards disability in Greece

         

        2. Lack of awareness on disability

        We will launch a video campaign aiming to raise public awareness

         

        3. Lack of contact with decision makers

        Our purpose is to set a long term goal and submit policy proposals on inclusive infrastructure and jobs.
