The Diversity at Work project was born from the need felt by the partners to contribute to the inclusion and integration into the world of work of a category that is particularly difficult to reach: people with cognitive disabilities.

Participant Testimonials

“I was invited to join the training webinar from Fondazione Monnalisa, that roughly explained me the Diversity at Work project and I positively have to remark my satisfaction in attending at. In my job, I do not have opportunities of listening international experience, as I’m constantly managing with local disabled people situation.”

Maria Elisa (Trainer Il Binario Association)

“Our association deals with assisting people with intellectual disabilities but also psychological problems related to anxiety, eating disorders, etc. We share these common objectives with the Fondazione Monnalisa in Tuscany, we have also collaborated in some initiatives carried out in Florence, at our headquarters. The Diversity at work project is very interesting for us, in the idea of involving other European association on the specific topic.”

Luisa (Trainer from ITACA)

"As a trainer who works with people with mental disabilities on a daily basis, I am always looking for ways to improve my work methods and support my clients even better. Participation in the DAW Project online training turned out to be extremely valuable. The knowledge I gained thanks to experienced experts and interactive methods teaching, significantly expanded my competences and understanding of the specific needs of my students"

Ksenia Buglewicz, Ph.D. (trainer, owner of Business Class)

"Thanks to this training, I learned how to communicate more effectively and adapt my approach to the individual capabilities of each person with a mental disability, which is crucial in my work. I also value the opportunity to exchange experiences with other professionals, which was an additional advantage of participating in the Project's activities. I recommend the project to anyone who wants to improve their qualifications in working with people with cognitive disorders. This is an investment that brings real benefits to both educators and their students."

Prof. Paulina Forma, Ph.D. (Jan Kochanowski University in Kielce)
