Workshop No. 1
Every person has the ability to choose. They choose
what to learn, how to live, what to have, whom to love...
Some choices are very materialistic but it would be impossible to live without them. All of us want to have a nice car, posh house,
designer clothing and lots of money. However, we don‘t realize that all of that
is temporary and that those material things don‘t always bring us happiness.
There are things far more important than wealth. Those precious things lie not in our homes or closets but in our
hearts. If the hart is warm, then that person will spread that warmth to
others. However, if there is a lot of blackness in the hart, the person will be
lonely and even the biggest fire won‘t warm him up.
Often we talk about what is more important – person‘s
exterior or interior? With this performance we want to remind everyone that
there is an enormous treasure buried deep inside them. Treasure that makes us
all equal. Not everyone is lucky enough to create material wealth. However,
every person is given a beating heart when he comes to this world. And it is up
to us to decide with what we fill our heart – with love and warmth, or jealousy
and hatred. But the most important thing is, that we can melt the ice in our
heart with love! So little! And we should all start with our selfs.

Workshop No.2
After the long winter
with white and gray colors we were really waiting for the colorful spring. So
we tried to take some colors from the nature and put them inside. We were
inspired by the beauty of flowers, clouds, trees, fruits, animals and
everything else the nature offers. The main material we used is paper because
first of all, it is a natural material and second, like this we could make
something like a 3D-effect by folding paper. After all this process of
painting, cutting and folding we organized a really nice exhibition for showing
our students what we produced together. Now, after our little celebration with
our staff and all of our students we have a little bit of spring everyday even
inside.

Workshop No.5
ENTREPRENEURSHIP
AND SELF-EMPLOYMENT
One possible
solution to problems of low participation rates lies in the potential for
intellectually disabled people to become self-employed or to start and run
their own businesses.
We are very
interested in:
-How often
do people with disabilities start businesses and what types of businesses do
they start?
-What
barriers do people with disabilities face when starting a business? Are these
barriers different than those faced by other entrepreneurs?
-Do
different disabilities present different barriers to self-employment or
business start-up (e.g., do people with physical disabilities face different
barriers than those with mental disabilities)?
-What are
the main policy tools available to help those with disabilities become more
entrepreneurial?
-How can
current policies be improved?
