Through the Bevica Scholarship Programme the Bevica Foundation supports innovative and bold thinkers in exploring how their profession can contribute to the development of universal design as a lever for the Sustainable Development Goals' pledge to Leave No One Behind.

Why?

Because we have ratified the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) and the obligation to undertake or promote research and development of universally designed goods, services, equipment and facilities.

We are determained that society needs inclusivity, as current products, environments, and services are often designed for idealized average users, excluding many.

Through the Bevica Scholarship Programme we call for multidisciplinary collaboration to acknowledge that living with different and changing abilities is a fundamental human condition.

Society should reflect this reality in all aspects, creating solutions that embrace diversity.
