Our goals:
Informing disabled women and the whole society about:
the fact that a disability does not prevent you from being a WOMAN!
we have the same rights, responsibilities and obligations as every other woman:
a right to independent life,
to starting our own family, to being a mother,
to education and to work,
as well as to being an active citizen.
we exist and hope for understanding from all our fellow citizens.
In order to do that we:
collect and distribute information pertaining to disabled women,
inform disabled parents of their rights and their obligations,
support youth with special needs and their parents,
work together with state institutions, the public sector, to ensure equal livelihood for disabled women,
promote equality and observe how international human rights are ensured,
get involved if need be and work with others to reduce inequalities.
