INDACO – INcreasing Disable Abilities and COmpetencies
The project aims to offer disabled learners an opportunity to advocate their European citizenship and their right to
continuous education. Each partner will select a number of disabled people to be involved, and the educators/parents
accompanying them. They will be involved in the laboratories of the partner countries and engaged in unusual tasks, as
artistic handicrafts, gardening, theatre or music, according to the specific rehabilitation techniques each partner is
specialised in. Disabled are expected to develop specific competencies, to face new realities and new challenges:
performing activities that other people can do will push them to try hard to succeed.
Parents and educators will have a role as learners: the first will modify erroneous attitudes and prejudiced (all/nothing;
able/ disabled), when existing; the second will experiment new methods and acquire know-how on how to transfer skills
to disabled learners. The activities performed and the outputs (handicraft products, theatre performances..) will be
included in a CD to be illustrated in the final conference and distributed to the local community, to encourage policy
makers, local administrators and firms to facilitate the labour insertion of disabled people, either by creating protected
niches of market or by making tailored tools and opportunities available.
