1st European Inclusive Education Week: Rytmus organized a workshop on their “TRANSIT” project
Mié, 26/11/2014
Rytmus organized already on 14. November 2014 an informative workshop on their “TRANSIT” project. Aim of this workshop was to raise awareness on the program that aims to foster the skills of young people with disabilities as well as their integration into the labour market.
The TRANSIT workshop gathered young people with disabilities that participate in the program and their families, employers (Euorvia, Domov Sue Rider), school teachers as well as representatives of NGOs and the Czech Education Ministry.
The workshop presented the different experiences of the schools, the families and employers as well as students with disabilities themselves. At the end of the day, a vision on how to expand the TRANSIT program in Czech Republic was developed by all participants. Furthermore, a discussion on how to tackle the problems encountered when looking for internships or work was started. Families underlined several times that the TRANSIT program should be integrated in the general Czech school system in the future.
