Description

A study of the Norwegian experience of providing peer support to people with disabilities.

Summary of the results

The initiative strengthened the relationship between the two organizations and contributed to the continuation of the exchange of experience between two completely different systems of support for people with disabilities - in Norway and Bulgaria. "It is this exchange of experience that increases the possibility for our organization to spread information about new and modern policies in the field of disabilities in Bulgaria, and to advocate for their application in our country."
Last but not least, personal and expert contacts were made between new members of the advocacy teams of the two organizations, which will serve for future joint activities.
