Maria Schmidt-Dengler EAIE 2005 Krakow Why a network within the network? Why a network for dis/ability officers? Good practice and bad experience

Maria Schmidt-Dengler EAIE 2005 Krakow Mission Statement on Equal Opportunities « All UNICA universities, as Universities in the Capital Cities of Europe committed to democratic values, pledge themselves to the implementation of policies, procedures and practices which do not discriminate on grounds of gender, marital status, age, disability, colour, ethnic origin, religious belief or sexual orientation. Consequently they will implement programmes to remove barriers to equality and to promote concepts of diversity and equality of opportunity in all their activities. » Signed on 15 December 2000 on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of UNICA.
