Resilient stories of inclusion
Join us on the week of the International Day of Persons with Disabilities, where the Open Eyes Foundation and IDEM will organize a "Living Library" in Rotterdam.
During this special event, a group of young people with disabilities will take the stage as "living books." We will listen to their real stories about school, work, dreams, and overcoming obstacles.
