The Sea4All shot taken by Tiliaventum President Daniele Passoni has won the photography award organized by EDF, the European Disability Forum that brings together organizations from European countries that defend the interests of over 100 million people with disabilities on the continent.

The competition proposed the title "Through the lens of accessibility: stories of barriers, challenges and good practices", and the European Disability Forum announced the winners on Tuesday 15 April, awarding 1st place to the Sea4All shot, a shot taken during the countless, continuous and inclusive sea activities for all of the Tiliaventum association that take place in Lignano Sabbiadoro, in Friuli, aboard the accessible sailing boat Càpita, with the enthusiastic Omar, Antonella and Remo who, smiling, navigate, steer and adjust the sails off the coast of the Friulian seaside city.

Great satisfaction for the author, for Tiliaventum and for all the members and volunteers of the Association, an example, today also photographically recognized at European level, of how we can share, All together, regardless of the so-called "disabilities", an increasingly rich and fulfilling daily life.
