Session of people with disabilities

Sessions of people with disabilities organized by the regional government are met with great interest every year. It’s an opportunity to talk about problems, exchange experiences, look for solutions together. On December 3 meeting with representatives of this community was attended by president of the regional parliament Elżbieta Piniewska, members of the voivodeship board Dariusz Kurzawa and Marek Wojtkowski, and voivodeship councilor Slawomir Kopyść.

Sessions of people with disabilities are extremely important for building identity and community. The point is to meet, get to know each other and talk – important issues are raised not only in the hall during the session, but also behind the scenes, said president of the regional parliament Elżbieta Piniewska, who led the session.
