Social Inclusion Lab
Real environments. Real people. Real practice.
Inclusion is not only a principle. It is something that has to be designed, delivered and improved in real services, learning environments and communities.
This six-day learning experience explores how organisations can create more inclusive, accessible and rights-based approaches for people with different needs and backgrounds.
Participants examine disability inclusion, independent living, accessibility, community-based support, anti-discrimination and inclusive service design through a combination of structured training, case-based learning, professional exchange and field experience.
In Greece, the programme draws on KMOP's direct work in social and community-based services. In Brussels, participants explore the European policy and stakeholder environment around social inclusion, disability rights, accessibility and community-based approaches.
Because we do not only train. We implement.
What you take home.
