19 Oct 2023: Disability Awareness & Action: Putting disability inclusion on your organisation’s agenda

Virtual Training Workshop

Thursday 19 October 2023 at 11:00-12:30 CET

Is your organisation struggling to engage people with disabilities?
Do you have any people with disabilities among your staff or volunteers?

Join Yesod Europe and Jamba for a virtual training workshop aimed at encouraging Jewish community professionals to assist their organisations in becoming more accessible, and to confidently welcome and engage community members with disabilities.

During this 90-minute workshop we will broaden perspectives and gain practical knowledge on improving the active participation of people with disabilities, including tackling questions such as:

  • What is disability?
  • How to involve and engage people with disabilities?
  • How to make events more accessible and inclusive?
