Congratulations on this well deserved first place and on creating meaningful change for so many children and families. 💛

Congratulations on this well-deserved recognition and on driving meaningful cultural change. 💛

3rd place 🏆✨ Kulturni dom Cerknica
Congratulations to this powerful project opening the doors of film culture to deaf, hard-of-hearing, blind, and visually impaired communities across Slovenia. By bringing accessible screenings beyond Ljubljana and creating spaces where everyone can experience cinema together, the initiative shows how culture becomes stronger when it truly includes everyone. 🎬❤️
