All our effort are focus on disadvantaged people due to physical, mental, economic, social and family conditions, with a particular interest for people in disability condition. In Moreover and secondly we push to promote a shared culture of assistive technologies and accessibility in general in young Europeans. This culture, going beyond all barriers to support disabled population, is spread in an irregular manner among the EU countries. For instance in Italy has developed more expertise in building a highly structured system of laws but at the same time is still lacking in terms of the most innovative social inclusion practices. Therefore the objective is to share european experiences and information that can be reported in each countries of origin, for us starting from Italy. In the perspective of a reciprocal exchange our organization will be able to acquire information and sensibility on the topic brought by the young volunteers, mixing competences and contents and building a constant link between countries enhancing a virtuous mechanism like that of European exchanges of volunteers. In the long term, we aim to create a voluntary network based on a common approach to the issues of disability and accessibility so as to be able to create shared paths bearing both values and diverse and varied experiences. This humus will be able to favor the birth of new approaches and solutions in terms of accessibility for disabled people especially. Another long-term goal is to promote the mobility of people with disabilities within the union.
