Ceramic mural by disabled young people in Sucre

This mural was made by people living in different institutions, with visual, mental or physical impairments.

As part of the research process, disabled people in focus groups were asked what, if anything, they would like to change in their lives. One blind girl who contributed to this mural, was among the very few who mentioned something about her body. She said she would like to be able to see in order to help people. When asked why she would need to see to do this, she said she had to know what the teacher, in her supposedly inclusive school, was writing on the blackboard, so that she could explain it to the other blind pupils.
