    Description
    The Organization of persons with disabilities “Ravenstvo” (Equality) is committed to the improvement of the situation of persons with disabilities in Kyrgyz Republic, their autonomy and equal participation in all spheres including labour market. Supported by the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection, Ravenstvo worked together with the experts from Latvia, Lithuania, Finland and Portugal mobilised by SOCIEUX+ to develop a project of a university disability-friendly career center for students of secondary and higher education. A study visit to Finland provided Kyrgyz partners from the ministry, civil society and universities with practical understanding of how education and labour market integration works in the EU.
