From Finland 🇫🇮 to Lebanon 🇱🇧 , the Connecting for Neurodivergent Youth Partnership Building Activity was more than a training experience — it was a space for dialogue, learning, reflection, and meaningful connection.
During these days in Espoo, we exchanged ideas with youth workers, educators, and organizations from different countries on how to create more inclusive, accessible, and neuro-affirming opportunities for young people. We explored how partnerships can support neurodivergent youth, strengthen community-based inclusion, and open new pathways for collaboration across Europe and the Mediterranean region.
For Zati Lebanon Association and CereBree, this experience was also an opportunity to share our work from Lebanon, our commitment to autism and mental health inclusion, and our vision for using both human-centered support and innovation to better accompany children, caregivers, and communities.
We leave this experience with new connections, fresh ideas, and a stronger belief that inclusion grows when people come together, listen deeply, and build solutions with care.
Thank you to the organizers, facilitators, and all participants who made this journey meaningful.
من فنلندا إلى لبنان، كانت فعالية Connecting for Neurodivergent Youth تجربة غنيّة بالتعلّم، الحوار، وبناء الشراكات.
خلال أيامنا في إسبو، تبادلنا الخبرات مع مشاركين ومنظمات من دول مختلفة حول دعم الشباب ذوي الاختلافات العصبية، وتعزيز الإدماج، وخلق مساحات أكثر تفهّماً وإتاحة.
بالنسبة إلى جمعية ذاتي ليبانون وCereBree، كانت هذه المشاركة فرصة لمشاركة تجربتنا من لبنان في مجال التوحّد، الصحة النفسية، والابتكار الداعم للأطفال ومقدّمي الرعاية.
نعود بروابط جديدة، أفكار ملهمة، وإيمان أكبر بأن الإدماج يبدأ عندما نلتقي، نصغي، ونتعاون.
