The Helpers of Youth from EYUBOGLU EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS, Turkey

IMPACT OF PROJECT

We are five students from Eyüboğlu Educational Institutions whose aim is to reduce the inequalities that children with Cerebral Palsy may face while getting a quality education. Especially with the start of the global covid-19 pandemic, we have seen that there are not easily accessible education platforms for disabled kids in our community whereas we have so many digital learning platforms that we can have access for free. We wanted to create easily accessible, fun and educational content that children all around the country can benefit from at any time and from any place. That’s why we decided to create fun animations because we found out that it captures the attention of the younger audience better.

We also want kids with this condition whose families don’t have the financial conditions to afford a special education to benefit from our project. We were aiming to spread our project by visiting special education schools in our country but unfortunately, we couldn’t have the chance to do that because of the covid restrictions in our country. We have impacted nearly 100 people through our social media. In addition to that we can say that we have educated the middle schoolers, teachers and high schoolers of our school which is more than 400 people, we informed them about our project and Cerebral Palsy through our website and the poster that we sent to them.
