Description

We explore the difficulties of those women at the labour market who are mothers of children with disabilities. Their difficulties concerning the family’s division of labour and also the forms of discrimination they have to face on national level. Based on the survey we further develop integrative (for mothers of sóchildren with any kind of disabilities) labour market services by focusing on individual supporting and career-guidance. We involve professional organizations, employers, decision makers, and stakeholders to the finalizing process of the integrative labour-market service model by generating mutual dialogues and by elaborating a mutual protocol on workshops. We assure the exchange of experience and the transmission of the service methodology on a network level for organizations of NÓRA-NETWORK with trainings. We implement communication, community media and advocacy trainings for the active communities of the target group. Their visual materials will be used in the campaign.
