Raising awareness of the rights of persons with disabilities is essential to advancing our rights. This can be done in different forms: media campaigns, events, awareness weeks, protests or simpler discussions. But what are the most effective methods?
During this peer-learning webinar, the European Disability Forum brings together advocates from diverse countries and diverse experiences to share what they tried, how it worked, and lessons learned from it.
The event will start with examples of campaign at the national and European level. The floor will then be opened for questions by the participants, and for the participants to share their campaigns.
