Goal of the event:
The goal of our event was to raise awereness of how difficult it is for people with dissabilities to be in the university, but also to motivate everyone to try their best with what they have to achieve their goals. Another goal was to gather bottle caps (in the form of a ticket in the entrance) because a local school for people with dissabilities, collect them for various uses, one of them being to exchange them with certain partner recycling companies for a symbolic amount of money for funding.
Short description of the event:
We gathered in the dorm's kitchen, wich we transformed in a cinema room, to watch the movie "The theory of everything", the biograhy of Stephen Hawking. We wanted to raise awereness of how difficult it is for people with dissabilities to be in the university, but also to motivate everyone to try their best with what they have to achieve their goals. The ticket for the movie was bottle caps which we gave afterwards to a local school for people with dissabilities, that collect them for various uses, one of them being to exchange them with certain partner recycling companies for a symbolic amount of money for funding.
How did your event go?:
Overall the event was a success. Both of our goals were achieved. We learned a valuable lesson through this movie, that I believe motivated everyone to keep trying and eventually reach their goals, but also we raised awareness on how difficult it can be some times, for people with dissabilities to study in the university.
