Voice for All – VS/2007/0477 aimed to raise awareness on race, sexual orientation,
gender, age, religion and disability as well as double/multiple discrimination,
in order to empower participants to challenge the learning and thinking processes
which give rise to discrimination.
Diversity enriches the quality of life yet through
misrepresentation, lack of understanding and knowledge it can become a cause for
discrimination and segregation. By providing information, space and time for participants
to stop and think about discrimination and the six grounds of discrimination, Voice
for All sought to activate cooperation and promote dialogue whilst enabling participants
to adopt an outlook which is based on awareness and understanding.
Voice for All
is a project funded by the European Community for Employment and Social Solidarity – PROGRESS (2007 – 2013).
