SELF-MANAGEMENT WORKERS’ EVENTS

In order to reduce the ignorance and close gaps between people with intellectual disabilities and the rest of the general public, the autogestores (self-management workers) from FEAPS Madrid are organising these open events, in which you will find exhibitions, video forums, roundtable discussions and many more activities.   The autogestores are people with intellectual disabilities, who organise themselves to discuss issues that concern them, to defend their rights and to represent themselves without mediators acting on their behalf. The autogestor groups form part of the associative movement FEAPS Madrid, which is a Federation of Organisations for people with intellectual disabilities. FEAPS and its 96 federal bodies, work to defend the rights of people with disabilities, providing services where needed, and to act as agents for social change.        www.feapsmadrid.org/drupal-6.19/Autogestores
