In Azerbaijan, the British Council joined the regional Unlimited: Making the Right Moves programme with a clear objective: to support disability arts by creating a sustainable network of practitioners, venues, producers and decision makers, and developing their skills to create and present inclusive work. We want the arts and culture to play a leading role in showing how a more open and inclusive social model leads to the well-being of everyone in a society. We see no reason why the disabled cannot be key contributors to social planning and policy-making processes, providing a challenge to fixed social attitudes by exposing audiences to integrated arts practice, leading to the logical conclusion: this, too, is part of our society and deserving of our attention.
