The Mexican Embassy presents: "Picture This: Our Diverse Reality"
 | |
The Mexican Embassy hosted the opening of the exhibition “Picture This: Our Diverse Reality”, today; which shares the perspectives of persons with diverse abilities through photographs they have taken about what is important to them. The exhibition is coordinated by Sharon Craig and Kent Young, in collaboration with the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth, the Belize Assembly for Persons with Diverse Abilities, Care Belize, St. Francis Xavier University of Canada and the Mexican Embassy. Recently, the Mexican Government conducted a National Survey on Disabilities (ENADIS) in order to assess the state of the protection of the population with diverse abilities and to guide the implementation of policies in this area. For all those reasons, the Mexican Embassy welcomed the exhibition “Picture This: Our Diverse Reality” in order to contribute to the efforts in Belize towards the strengthening of the protection of persons with diverse abilities. The exhibition will remain open until February 10th, and is open to the general public, from Monday to Friday, between the hours of 8:30 am to 5 pm.
