High-impact initiative in Tempio Pausania, for World Down Syndrome Day. Many people attended the events organized by the Italian Association of Downs. Above all, it was an opportunity to meet and celebrate, with many people ready to overcome prejudices and fears as protagonists.
The slogan was "With us, not in our place". The local section of AIPD prepared for the event by working on issues such as the rights of persons with disabilities enshrined in the UN Convention, within the AIPD national project “Tutti in piazza”. The adult members with Down syndrome, with the operators of the Aipd section, have chosen to represent the themes that are closest to their hearts: the right to an independent life and a home, to free choice, to education, to communication clear and accessible, to private life, the right to work. A photographic exhibition has been set up on these rights, created by the photographer Nanni Angeli, which proposes an ironic and original reinterpretation of the themes. The images are accompanied by the summary panels of another national project: "Non uno di meno".
Aipd with the volunteers of the "Don Mureddu" Oratory of Tempio organized the preparation and distribution of a dish, parcels with meatballs of various flavors fried at the moment were delivered, with the free and voluntary support of Mirtò Sardegna. The "Città di Tempio" band and the Alpha Centaur scout group took part in the day
