I want to work! the exhibition of photographs and CVs – the “Social while physically distant” campaign for advocating the right to work and employment was opened yesterday, December 1st, 2022, in Exportdrvo, with numerous key stakeholders, people with disabilities, parents and the media.

You can view the exhibition until December 7th, 2022, from 18:00 to 21:00, on the ground floor of Exportdrvo. The setting up of the exhibition was financed by the Primorsko-goranska County, the County Office, the Public Call for Grants through sponsorship, financing of manifestations and other events that take place from July 1st to December 31st, 2022, and are of great importance for the Primorsko-goranska County, while the City of Rijeka made it possible to use Exportdrvo free of charge.

We thank numerous leaders and employees of various institutions, as well as representatives of organizations and employers, for their support and establishment of new cooperation, as well as open dialogue in solving various challenges related to equalizing the right to work and employment of people with disabilities.

We thank the representatives of the media for their response and interest in this extremely important topic: Novi list, HRT, Kanal Ri, Teklić and others.

Thank you to our volunteers for their help with the organization, as well as our “DIP-ovci” (DIP members) for their active participation in the creation of this campaign. Of course, our thanks also goes to Sonir from Exportdrvo, for the great cooperation and help with the set-up.
