The goal was to train employers in disability understanding and also motivate them to provide jobs to PwD. Over 30 representatives of various companies shared experience and discussed existing tax exemptions and legislative privileges for employers and for PwD in the Republic of Uzbekistan.

According to the principles of “Nothing about us without us”, “ACCESS” project has also invited PwDs who shared their views and reflected on issues regarding employment and finding jobs.

The project ACCESS (Accessibility Civic Consciousness Employment Social Support) is aimed at expanding opportunities of social integration and employment for PWDs through raising public awareness and forming a positive public opinion on the issues of disability; improving the coordination and the building capacity of state and non-state actors in the promotion of implementation of legislation towards PWD; promoting accessibility to social infrastructure; creating a system of social support and the employment of PWDs.
