About No Barriers
No Barriers aims to research and facilitate the inclusion of individuals with intellectual disabilities in multi-sectoral employment, focusing on the development and implementation of social inclusion policies. Recognizing that disability contributes to social exclusion, the project seeks to address barriers that prevent intellectually disabled individuals from engaging in social relations, cultural and social activities, education, accessing basic services, and participating in the economic field.
