"We copied the idea from the Trier 5th of May Action Alliance," explained Horst Müller, Chairman of the Inclusion Advisory Board. The 5th of May is the European Day of Protest for the Equality of People with Disabilities and the alliance had organized an art project for this year's day of protest in which such colourful wheelchairs were designed. They were placed at various locations in the city to draw attention to the barriers that exist there. "We want to do the same and place the wheelchair at critical points in Idar-Oberstein to draw attention to existing problems for people with disabilities," says Horst Müller. The wheelchair will also be used in general to draw attention to the work of the Inclusion Advisory Board.
