Goals

Understanding the European current attitudes towards disability and disabled people, focusing on the opinion and attitudes of Human Resources departments of certain organisations.
Understanding the disabled people current perceptions and experiences about civil society’s attitudes towards them and their disabilities.
Launching a transnational campaign to encourage the European public to think about how disabled people can be included more in our lives.
Improving people with disabilities’ experiences when they participate in everyday life areas, such as transport, public services, health services, etc.
It is expected from Awareness4Change to awaken society in order to discuss and change attitudes towards people with disabilities. After this, employment professionals working in human resources will be engaged, because they are capable to make a difference in the reality of people with disabilities in the labour market context.
Lastly, the partners expect to contribute for social change in the European scenario, making a tool for the social engagement in disability affairs which will be replicable in all of Europe, in order to globally transform the labor market and all of society in a space of community and human diversity.
