On 03.06 2014 Eli and Anca went to Portugal on New Path to Inclusion Project.

Eli represented EPSA and was responsable to check if conference was accessible for persons with disabilities.

Meeting was 4 days and professionists from diferrent countries attended.

Also 2 self-advocates attended this meeting, Eli from Romania and Senada from Croatia.

Theme of the conference was inclusion of persons with disabilities and how they can recieve support to live in community.

For 2 days we worked in pairs and small groups and everyone shared his experience from his own country.

Eli said about her life in institutions and the support she need it in community. On the 3rd day we tried to find solutions for inclusion.

Was hard for Eli to understand the topics because informations were hard to understand. Sel- advocates discussed how a conference should be accessible.

Self-advocates proposed to make a trainning for professionists to learn how to make accessible informations.
