(ANSA) - ROME, MAY 24 - "We also and above all need a profound cultural exchange. To this end, each of us must understand that people with disabilities cannot be considered as a burden. Or as people equal but separate from the rest of the community. They are citizens and must participate fully and on an equal footing, according to their respective aspirations and individual life projects, in every area of life in the country ".
This was stated by the president of the Chamber Roberto Fico at the conference "Cultural and architectural barriers - knock them down with a smile", followed by the screening of the film "Corro da te".
