Without it, they cannot go out, study, work, play sports, travel, have fun, run errands. That is, to live as an equal citizen in society. For the elderly and parents with strollers, accessible spaces are equally important. It is a great help for those with temporary injuries, pulling suitcases and shopping bags. And everyone is much more comfortable in an accessible environment!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is no list or map of accessible locations in Hungary. For people with disabilities, however, predictability is essential. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Therefore, in 2018, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">our association was the only one in the country to create a free P\u00e9cs city database of accessible locations in and around P\u00e9cs<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. In recent years, we have developed this from small grants, mostly from our own resources, into a professional one. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The aim is<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to provide urban populations with detailed and reliable information on accessible locations. Information is available in 12 categories, free of charge, in Hungarian and English, illustrated with many own photos, map display and contact information. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It also aims to develop barrier-free tourism in Hungary, to attract and inform tourists visiting P\u00e9cs (this is why it is also available in English). Since then, there has been no similar urban barrier-free database in the country. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Barrier-free P\u00e9cs Database is available free of charge on our website in Hungarian and English:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/peoplefirst.hu\/en\/barrier-free-pecs\/\">https:\/\/peoplefirst.hu\/en\/barrier-free-pecs\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Goal:<br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Barrier-free P\u00e9cs Database is unique in Hungary and has made the city of P\u00e9cs exemplary.

This existing result is constantly strengthened as the database expands.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maintaining the database is part of city marketing. <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It makes P\u00e9cs one of the citadels of barrier-free tourism in Hungary, and its tourism marketing power is significant.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Strengthening existing cooperation with City Hall.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Based on our measurements and domestic and international feedback, the citizens of P\u00e9cs and visitors feel a serious need for the Barrier-free P\u00e9cs Database and are happy to use it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The social sensitization effect of the database is extremely important for both disabled and able-bodied society!\u00a0 Therefore, the Barrier-free P\u00e9cs Database and the Hidden City Tor-Tour are closely complementary activities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Target groups:<br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our basic target group is people with disabilities.

Professional explorations in teams of 3 people (limited mobility, visually impaired, assisting). Then they are processed and inserted into the database in Hungarian and English (description, data, photo documentation, map display, commenting option.
