KEPAKY created the short film “Accessibility in the City for All” and organized a city walk to highlight challenges faced by people with disabilities and mobility issues, promoting awareness and social responsibility.
Recognizing the risks and social isolation caused by lack of accessible urban infrastructure, KEPAKY produced the film “Accessibility in the City for All” to raise public awareness about the importance of inclusive environments.
A city walk in Limassol brought together multiple groups—including the European Social Forum Cyprus, the Cyprus Paraplegic Organization, volunteers, and municipal representatives—to identify barriers related to ramps, sidewalks, toilets, and parking.
