This webinar aims to equip national experts of AccessibleEU with the tools and knowledge to collaborate with organisations representing the interests of persons with disabilities and elderly people in order for them to carry out their activities. To achieve the Centre’s goals, it is essential for the national experts to engage groups that benefit directly from accessibility, such as persons with disabilities and ageing adults.
The Centre is composed of a network of 34 national experts who serve as focal points and antennas for the Centre in each EU Member States.
Target audience: National Experts of AccessibleEU, Members of the AccessibleEU consortium, Members of the AccessibleEU community of practice, Members of the European Disability Forum, Members of AGE Platform Europe
