Project Summary

People with disabilities between the ages of 16 and 30 have a level of education that is still lower than that of young people without disabilities of the same age.
About 40% of the young people with disabilities report having felt discriminated against in the last 12 months in the fields of education, training or work.
The results of the Erasmus + project (2018-2-ES02-KA347-011924) show that young people often suffer discrimination in educational, training or work environments.
This discrimination is always linked to the early departure of these young people from school.
This project proposes to exchange best practices between our partner countries in order to produce a summary document of the findings that are diffusable and useful for employment and education professionals who advise, support and assist these young people. The goal is to produce conclusions that raise awareness of the benefits of diversity, inclusion, tolerance and inclusion of youth with disabilities. This program will include strategies and dissemination tools to combat and eliminate prejudices and stereotypes against disability among young people without disabilities.

This will be possible mainly through a program using an innovative approach of cooperation between complementary organizations from different fields, but which share common interests, values ​​and objectives.
The main content of this innovative program will be based on:
• Prejudices and stereotypes that determine discrimination,
• The language elements that accompany these prejudices
• Conditions conducive to good integration
