Description

Show Me Inclusion is a contest.
The idea is to show people with disabilities are the same as other people.
You can participate by sharing what inclusion means to you.
You can send a video, photos, audio, a sketch book or a story book here

Persons with disabilities have the right to be equal members of society. This is often not the case – in Europe and around the world. In developing countries – like Ethiopia or South Sudan – a young person with disability will often not have access to school, jobs or social life. Let’s show the world that it doesn’t have to be that way!Who?Everyone is invited to get creative and show us inclusion!

Submissions are accepted in these languages: English, German, Dutch, Slovak and Czech. Any entry in another language should be translated into English in the description box of the submission form.

Eligibility

Group submissions  are accepted and especially encourage young people from 12 to 26 to take part.

Prize

The winning entry will be professionally produced and used worldwide as an awareness raising tool. If you live in an EEX partner country, you can also win other prizes (check out the pages for Austria, The NetherlandsCzech Republic and Slovakia).
