The project consists of the creation of an audiovisual map to give a voice and visibility to the collective of disabled women to foster their inclusion in society.
The main goal is to make this collective visibility, change their social and cultural image and get rid of the stereotypes related with gender and disabilities.
The map offers information on the accessibility of several locations in the city, and it is also an archive of experiences, activities and personal projects by the AMDAS LAFONTE.
On the project blog, we can see the map, the sound files and the images that document this whole process: http://concienciaaural.laboralcentrodearte.org
