Policy for Including Disabled People in Social Cultural Life as Creators of Cultural Assets or Cultural Produce Users

When implementing the 2016-2020 National Disability Strategy the Ministry of Culture is pursuing a consistent policy for the inclusion of disabled people in social cultural life as creators of cultural assets or cultural product users. Accessible architectural and intellectual environment in the field of culture is being provided, conditions are created for integrated education of children with special educational needs in arts and culture schools, organisations of disabled persons are receiving support for creative projects, and the implementation of the Concept for Changes in the Regulations for Implementing Art. 30 of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities commenced in 2015. The efforts of the Ministry of Culture focus on different laws and regulations for their implementation, for the introduction of effective mechanisms and practices to ensure equal opportunities for disabled people.
