The project aims to develop an interculturally barrier-freemodel, which would secure migrants with disabilities and their families access toservices for people with disabilities and thus counteract social isolation and exclusion.The model is to be implemented in institutions in the disability sector, as well as in publicand private welfare authorities.The interculturally barrier-free model comprises criteria, strategies and methods for aEuropean interculturally, barrier-free information design, as well as drafts and qualitycriteria for an intercultural qualification process for knowledge multipliers in institutions inthe disability sector, public and private evaluating and allocating authorities.The interculturally barrier-free model, the respective products of the project, test andevaluation reports, and integrated links to the project website will be collected in ahandbook and published for Europe-wide use. The handbook can be used as a meansof self-evaluation by institutions in the disability sector and public and private evaluatingand allocating authorities. Taking transferability into account, the handbook can also beused as a product development tool by other service providers in the social sector allover Europe. The project website will include downloads and blended learning tools.The needs analysis, criteria catalogues, and measures of certification developed duringthe project will be offered, implemented and disseminated through e-learning, ICTfunctionsand learning platforms.
