This year, because of the COVID-19 situation, training for self-advocates was done online. By doing this we were able to reach more people. We had 93 registrations for the events and 71 attendees.
László Bercse, Chair of the European Platform of Self-Advocates and the Vice-President of Inclusion Europe, speaks about the impact of Covid 19 on lives of persons with disabilities.
Inclusion Europe's President Jyrki Pinomaa went to Manchester to meet with Learning Disability England and attend their conference. His thoughts and impressions about the organisation were very positive.
Self-advocate Ellis Jongerius wrote a blog post about the life with a mild intellectual disability for the Dutch Care Institute. We translated her post into English.
Nearly 40 participants from 13 European countries came to talk about the multiple discriminations women with intellectual disabilities face, and how to tackle this issue.
The independent self-advocacy organisation announced they will be closing its doors due to a lack of state funding. Inclusion Europe strongly opposes this development.
