The training for students Seeing Disability is a new project started in April 2013 within VI Krakow Integration Days.

The trainings are held at the time of lectures. The topics of lectures and trainings are related to each other, to show the issue of disability is around us.

The project of Seeing Disability is composed of five parts.

1. Seeing Space: Universal Spatial Design.
2. Seeing Sound: the Deaf and Hard of Hearing People.
3. Seeing Image:  the Visual Impairment.
4. Seeing Another Face: Mental Disorders from Pathology to Social Reality; Our Kind(less)ness to People with Mental Disorders.
5. Bridging the Disability Barriers: the Polish Context.

Theaim of the project is to raise students’  awareness of the situation of disabled students.

The project consists of five trainings comprising various types of disability. The first topics (e.g. Seeing Space, Sound, Image) are the major ones. The second part of each title is flexible and can be changed.

Most of the trainings are led by specialists from the CUE Office for Students with Disabilities. The form of trainings is open. Besides students attending the lecture, they are also open to people who are interested in disability.

The trainings include presentations, videos, experiments, special guests, talks, tasks for students etc.

Besides the Polish lectures, the project involves lectures in English so the trainings are in a foreign language.
