Town constructs LEGO inclines advocating for mobility inclusivity
Community LEGO Ramp Project Aims to Promote Inclusion in Waldkirch
Waldkirch, Germany - A unique and engaging project is set to take place in September, as the city embarks on a mission to build a colorful LEGO ramp at the entrance of Reformhaus Steinhart on the market square. The project, titled "Build. Understand. Change.", aims to stimulate thought about inclusion and accessibility, and does not replace a standard wheelchair ramp, but serves as a symbol for barrier-free access.
The LEGO ramp project is a hands-on initiative for children and young people, and the city is seeking donations of colorful LEGO bricks in various shapes and sizes. Base plates with a width of 25.5 cm are also required for the construction.
The City of Waldkirch is involved in the project, and it is supported by the athletics department of SV Waldkirch, who are requesting donations of LEGO bricks. Drop-off points for LEGO donations are the city administration, the local offices in Buchholz and Kollnau.
The finished ramp will be a vibrant and eye-catching addition to Waldkirch, and will serve as a visible reminder of the importance of inclusion and accessibility. The project's motto, "Build. Understand. Change.", encapsulates the essence of the initiative - building something tangible, understanding its purpose, and using that understanding to drive positive change in the community.
For more information about the project, including event timings and requirements for donated LEGO bricks, we recommend checking local Waldkirch community websites, municipal event calendars, or social media pages. You can also contact local community centers, libraries, or schools in Waldkirch that often host or support such initiatives. Additionally, announcements on platforms dedicated to local events or LEGO fan communities in Germany may provide further details.
This project is a great example of a community coming together to create something meaningful and inclusive, and we encourage everyone to get involved if they can. Let's build, understand, and change together!
The LEGO ramp project initiated by Waldkirch aims to provide a symbolic solution for inclusion and accessibility, harmonizing perfectly with a home-and-garden setting using colorful LEGO bricks. The city is reaching out to the community, requesting donations of various shaped and sized LEGO blocks to enhance the residential ambiance and promote the lifestyle of inclusivity.
