Behinderung und Entwicklungs­zusammen­arbeit e.V.

Creating structures for inclusive voluntary commitment

Already since 2012 bezev has been committed to the participation of people with disabilities in the field of foreign engagement and voluntary services. By pointing out and documenting barriers, bezev continuously contributed to their removal.

On the one hand, bezev is committed to improving the legal framework, which prevents people with disabilities from engaging abroad on an equal footing.

On the other hand, bezev contributes to an improvement of the promotion guidelines of various formats and programmes of foreign engagement/voluntary services themselves.   

In order to carry out this important political and committee work, bezev is networked with other organisations and sponsors, in particular with self-representative organisations of people with disabilities as well as sponsors of international volunteer services or foreign commitments.
