Period of implementation of the project: 

Spring – Summer 2021

Challenge: 

Lack of social involvement of  people with disabilities and older people in social activities.

Solution: 

To make inclusive traveling in  Belarus a reality, involve and encourage groups of different people to travel together. Groups,  including people with  disabilities and the  elderly, will  become  travelers and show that  together everything is  possible.

Results: 

1. We proved that travelling for everyone is possible!
2. We have created/improved the conditions for the  accessibility of various places  such as beaches, museums,  ecological paths, etc. for people with  disabilities and older people. For  example, a ramp, an inclusive toilet,  a bridge, a lift, etc.
3. We have created virtual infrastructure to make it possible for everyone to repeat the same trips. Specifically, we have created a chat bot in TG which helps to find fellow  travelers with whom to go on the  described journeys. Also we have created a site which contains a lot of useful information related to inclusiveness, such as:

• Life hacks;
• Itineraries presentation with map and pictures;
• Motivational stories of our heroes;
• Link to chat bot in TG.
