Gain insight into the everyday barriers faced by disabled people
03.
Develop an understanding of accessibility, inclusion, and universal design.
04.
Learn to recognise and challenge harmful stereotypes and misconceptions.
05.
Explore the principles of equality, human rights, and social justice.
06.
Discover various assistive technologies and supports that promote independence.

Since the training started in 2010, DCIL have delivered the disability awareness program to a total of…
school classes, that's a total of...
school students across Donegal.
Feedback from teachers, parents and the participants themselves has been very positive. DCIL will hopefully change the perception of people with disabilities by continuing to visiting schools around Donegal.
