Objectives

The ALL4-3D project pursued three key objectives aimed at enhancing expertise and promoting social inclusion of young people with disabilities in a digitalized environment. The first objective was to upgrade the professional profiles of experts working with young people with disabilities, with a focus on the use of 3D technology. This was intended to equip professionals with advanced skills that enable them to effectively support the inclusion of young people with disabilities in the modern labor market. The second objective was to promote social inclusion and improve the employability of people with disabilities, which we achieved by integrating innovative digital tools such as 3D printing. The third objective focused on developing sustainable solutions that contribute to environmental responsibility, through the use of biodegradable materials and recycling. These activities were aimed at achieving a comprehensive improvement in the position of young people with disabilities in society, while also creating sustainable impacts on the environment and the labor market.
