What those who support us say

During my time at AIEDI, I had many enriching experiences, both personally and professionally. From creating videos and designs for its social media channels to leading and guiding an entire team of volunteers, I was able to contribute to a social cause through my skills and strengths. I am very grateful for the opportunity to work alongside my AIEDI colleagues and add value to the association.

The Interdisciplinary Association of Students and Graduates on Disability and Inclusion (AIEDI) is a community whose members share a common goal: achieving a more inclusive society. AIEDI is also a learning space where talent and commitment come together in projects that benefit persons with disabilities.

My experience can be described in three important words: relevant, comprehensive and unique. It was relevant because it influenced both a group of young people working on disability and inclusion and my professional development. It was comprehensive because I worked with an interdisciplinary team, and unique because the opportunity became part of my personal growth.
