The primary objective of the project was to increase the employment of persons with disabilities in the City of Warsaw by addressing institutional barriers, negative stereotypes, and prejudices that hindered their employment. The project was divided into three main activity groups: developing and conducting baseline analyses, testing and developing final product versions, and publicizing and disseminating the accepted solutions. The project involved collaboration with Fundacja Aktywizacja, an NGO with significant experience in working with PwD.
The project activities included diagnosing the needs of various groups to ensure equal chances for PwD in the recruitment process, developing research tools, conducting training courses, and creating a manual of solutions and recommendations. The project also focused on raising awareness about the capabilities and needs of persons with disabilities, optimizing their working conditions, and improving the structure of social and tripartite dialogue.
The project was aligned with the European Pillar of Social Rights and complied with various EU regulations and strategies aimed at promoting equal opportunities and preventing discrimination. The project was expected to have a positive impact on the social dimension of sustainable development by promoting the professional activation of persons with disabilities, overcoming workplace discrimination, and building responsible work teams.
