TOURISM FOR ALL at the Issyk-Kul lake

In July 2024, Women’s Community Aiym, with the support of Good Neighbors Kyrgyz Republic, organized Summer camp on the Issyk-Kul lake cost for persons with disabilities (PwDs).

 

13 participants of the camp spent three sunny unforgivable days in Solemar recreation center, which provided opportunity for persons with disabilities to have a quality rest free of charge. Staying in this center was especially comfortable for the participants, as its area is adapted for PwDs: has traps on the center area and easy access to the beach.

 

During these three days, participants were enjoying the beauty of the lake, communicating, sharing their success stories, motivating and inspiring each other. Participants returned to Bishkek with great impression, renewed and encouraged to overcome the new challenges.

 

This event also happened thanks to the support of “Red Petroleum” gas station network!
