The Forum “Accessible Cultural Environment” will take place on October 20-21, 2020 at the Mercure Moscow Paveletskaya hotel, Moscow, Russia.

Every year, the forum brings together leading experts in the field of inclusive art, sociocultural adaptation, and rehabilitation of people with disabilities and a variety of formats for interaction and exchange of experience.

The 2020 Forum participants will enjoy lectures, networking, workshops, film screenings, master classes, and open lessons with experts.

In the modern world, the social and cultural rehabilitation of people with disabilities should not be limited to the sphere of organizing leisure and entertainment. The main task is to fully integrate people with disabilities into society to maximize their independence scope.

The forum will present unique inclusive online programs of sociocultural rehabilitation and adaptation and modern projects for organizing communication between cultural and art workers in a professional environment.

Inclusion will be considered in the space of contemporary culture; there will be a conversation about issues of upbringing and education of a child with disability, about developing internal resources for further movement along the difficult path of parenting; the techniques for preventing professional burnout have been analyzed; an acquaintance with staging work in an inclusive theater and dance team will take place.

Participation in the forum is free – admission by prior registration.
