Why Awareness4Change project?
People with disabilities represent a group of people that is more affected by social exclusion. For instance, in 2016 in the EU-28, the poverty and social exclusion rate of people, aged 16 or over, with some or severe limitation was 30.1% of the total population. Meanwhile, the exclusion rate of people with no disability was of 20.9%, resulting a gap of 9.2%.
In this context, charged with public negative attitudes and a heightened impact of social exclusion upon the target group, the Awareness4Change project aims to do the diagnosis of the situation in order to improve everyday interactions and greater public education about disability.
The goal is to increase understanding and acceptance of disabled people.
