Hoje, no Dia Nacional de Luta da Pessoa com Deficiência, eu volto a um lugar que mudou para sempre a forma como percebo o mundo. 💙

Foi nas Ilhas Fiji, convivendo com crianças e adolescentes com diferentes deficiências e neurodivergências, que vi a arte e a música criarem e abrirem caminhos onde, muitas vezes, só existiam exclusão, capacitismo e preconceito.

Contribuí, em comunidade, para que talentos florescessem, vínculos nascessem e pessoas encontrassem formas de se expressar, pertencer e prosperar.

Foi também dessa experiência que nasceu a @behappy_fiji, ONG que fundei e que, há 10 anos, faz da música e da arte instrumentos de inclusão, encontro e transformação.

E foi ali, ao lado dessas crianças, que aprendi algo que multiplico até hoje: propósito não é uma coisa que a gente encontra só para si. É aquilo que nos coloca em movimento pelo outro e nos faz reconhecer como nossas as lutas que são coletivas.

Que nos ensina a 🌱 esperançar, 🌱 acreditar e, principalmente, a não desistir.

Fiji me ensinou que inclusão não é adaptar alguém ao mundo como ele está. É transformar o mundo para que todas as pessoas possam existir nele com dignidade, autonomia, oportunidade e pertencimento.

Foi lá que encontrei o meu propósito de vida. E é por ele que sigo: acreditando na arte, na inclusão, no encontro e na força da coletividade. 🩵🩵🩵

With the help of our partners in 2024 we raised enough money to fund music classes at Fiji School for the Blind in collaboration with the team at @behappy_fiji.

Due to challenges surrounding disability awareness in Fiji, families often feel the burden of care for special needs children and in response, Be Happy Music Club have been training local musicians to facilitate music programs at schools for special education.

This program will launch over the next few weeks and run for one year with the opportunity to extend the program to other schools for special education around Fiji.

Here is a message from the Director of Be Happy Fiji ( @andre_comaru ) with an update on the program 🤜🌸

Special thanks to all of the people that purchased a work or donated to this charity, and thank you again to our project partners:

Artist: @bromleyandco
Art Director: @eddiezammit
Gallery Partner: @mirvac_portfolio
