👏Thank you @Fundacion_ONCE for inviting EPR to take part in a meeting w/ the @EU_Commission's Disability Unit!

It was a valuable opportunity for @MyEDF, EPR & ONCE to share our key priorities for the current mandate, particularly in areas of #accessibility & service provision.

🚨 Europe needs to invest in jobs, skills and inclusion! 🚨

With 94.6M people at risk of poverty, the EU must strengthen, not weaken, the European Social Fund.
Europe's future depends on it!

Assistive technology (AT) can play a crucial role in empowering people w/ disabilities, yet, accessibility barriers remain.

For our #OnlineCampaign2024, we aim to promote the benefits of AT & to also raise awareness on challenges preventing widespread access🌐

"If there's no political leader for Equality, we won't advance"
The words of our Director @catherinenaugh during #FreedomDrive, calling downgrade of Equality a "huge step backwards".
But it's not finished yet.
The @Europarl_EN must pressure President @vonderleyen to adapt.
