BEYOND DISABILITIES, INFINITE POSSIBILITIES
Vision Ekansh: To make the world less exclusive…and therefore more inclusive.
We have largely denied ourselves the chance of encouraging and interacting with great minds and people with great abilities because we’ve been focusing on what they cannot do within preset parameters. It is time we opened our minds and hearts and let the truth enter. The truth is that all of us are disabled in one way or the other…some more and some less. And it is our solemn duty to respect and ensure that every human being is given the chance to live a WHOLE life regardless of natural disabilities.
People with Disabilities are also People with Abilities.
Mission Ekansh: Every child is perfect. Ask the mother. Every human being has a right to education and employment and equal status in society. Every child has the right, first and foremost, to the complete love and support of his/her family. Ekansh wants to ensure that families of special children/adults have a voice and a community where they can find aid, information and a place to find ways to encourage and stand by our special friends in their efforts to achieve their best.
Imagine…a world without barriers. Where we all play, study, work and live as equals…where there has to be no FIGHT for our rights…for what is ours already.It is indeed time for a change…for our world to be whole again.
EKansh IS 'about us'....not about you and me and them. Our main focus is awareness and acceptance...to sensitize mainstream society and ensure Inclusion in the real sense of the word.
UNIVERSAL DESIGN must be a part of our individual and social make up so that everything we plan and develop for society is INCLUSIVE.
We believe there is plenty of empathy where there is awareness. INCLUSION can only result from awareness, acceptance and sensitization.
Most often, in any situation in our society, inclusion happes first and half hearted sensitization then follows in the hope that people will become more aware and accepting...this can be counterproductive.
The right sequence is as follows:
