Currently, migrants with disabilities experience difficulties when moving and legalizing, as well as when looking for work and employment in Poland, due to their own lack of awareness on the one hand and the unwillingness of most employers to help adapt a migrant with a disability to work. The project aims to eliminate psychological barriers for people with disabilities and include them in a full social life in Poland society through training in the popular barista profession. The form of training for the new profession of a barista was chosen in connection with the growing popularity of coffee shops and the social component of this type of activity, which would allow people with disabilities to socialise and feel like full members of society. Previously, the project team has a successful experience in training more than 50 people with disabilities and employing 12 people with disabilities, the confirmation of the implementation of this project in Belarus is the existing social coffee-spaces with working inclusive employees.
