About us
The Right Now association is committed to promoting the rights and equal participation of people with disabilities. Together with them, the association works to create a society in which all people have equal opportunities and possibilities.
Through various projects and initiatives, Right Now works with people with disabilities to break down barriers and create spaces in which they can fully develop their potential.
With its first major project, ‘Disability Leadership’, the association aims to specifically empower people with disabilities in leadership positions. They should play an active role in shaping society, the economy, politics and administration and take on responsibility. Through training, mentoring programmes and strong networks, Right Now creates the conditions for driving structural change and shaping an inclusive future.
