Different Abilities, Equal Rights: exclusion vs inclusion

Tools on the poster: wheelchair, wheelchair ramp for building access, blind cane + sunglasses, assistance/therapy dog, medicines, Braille book, speech computer/tablet, hearing aid, sign language, tricycle, glasses/magnifier, leg/arm prosthesis, couch/support.

The 'Different Abilities, Equal Rights' poster is one of the two posters on the right to development. In the middle of the poster, four main characters - including Amir, one of the secondary characters in the stories of the five characters - are depicted. The green and red rectangles below the main character allow players to talk about barriers and how to make (public) spaces accessible for people with a disability. Around the main characters, one can see 13 circles with devices/tools which can support people with disabilities or disorders. In the four corners, icons are drawn to allow players to discuss the impact of disabilities and disorders on: education, health care, friends/family and play.

• Instead of starting with the tools, start at one of the characters in the middle and choose one or more tools you think they could use.
• Instead of starting with the tools, tart from the corners of the poster. Discuss the barriers and opportunities for inclusion in this domain for people with a disability and/or disorder.

• Extra: Ask the players to focus on the duty-bearers in the barrier and the inclusion option they mentioned for someone using this tool. Do they need help from a duty-bearer within this inclusion option? Do some duty-bearers hinder them/are some duty-bearers not adapted to the situation when using this tool (barrier)?

• Learning about disabilities and disorders.
• Learn to create an open and welcoming environment for people with disabilities and disorders.
