Method to help people with locomotor disabilities to develop employability projects in accordance with their personal aspirations and potential
BeyondWheels is an Erasmus+ project in the field of adult education that aims to support adults with motor disabilities in designing employability, self-employment or entrepreneurship pathways aligned with their personal aspirations and potential.
The project develops and tests an innovative training and coaching method that combines psychology, coaching, strategic analysis and project management.
BeyondWheels promotes autonomy, dignity and active participation, moving beyond assistive and paternalistic approaches.
