“In a society dominated by men, where many women are still afraid to be photographed without asking permission from their husbands, things are changing.

Fidan is one of these amazing women who would never start a relationship, if she wouldn’t be treated equally and respected.”

“In 2005 Magda experienced a terrible car accident, as a passenger. In most parts of the world, people in wheelchairs are condemned to isolation by authorities. While traveling around the planet I visited tens of countries where you don’t see them at all, in public areas. Why?

But Magda wants to change the way people in wheelchairs are treated, at least in her country, through some amazing initiatives.”

“Ania dreams to compete in the Paralympic Games.”
