Towards the End

The TOWEL project is coming to its end! No more project meetings, no more talks and decisions about the future. The only things that will still remain are the nice friendship among the project partners, the lessons learned and memories from the spectacular places we have visited and the possibility to go on organizing learning events in the future.
And this is because we have made together, all three partners, a model that can be easily followed by anyone interested in informal learning and involving disabled people in easy and pleasant learning happenings. It's easy just to decide on a topic, a time and a place, to meet there and to share what each participant knows on that topic. No teachers, no grades, no exams, no failure or mistakes, no all-knowing or useless persons. Just learners.
We had the opportunity to organize lots of learning events, each partner. And the topics were also extremely diverse: culture, history, social life, sports, organizational development, strategies, photography, filming, food and drinks, ceramic manufacturing and many, many others. And we had the chance to see how people with disabilities enjoy tremendously these events, and how non-disabled people came together and loved being there, without having any negative attitudes towards disabilities.
The entire project was a great experience. Everybody won from it, and we are all better persons, we know more and we are better professionals. New doors have opened, new horizons and dreams have started for each one of us.
We'll meet again! For sure!
