We are holding a professional workshop on September 6 at the 9th Barrier-free Tourism Day.
The discussion on accessible tourism and the alternatives of accessibility will begin at 3:00 PM in the Medvehagyma House.

This event is not just for professionals – in fact, it’s especially for everyone! Join us, listen to the inspiring talks, and most importantly, share your thoughts and ideas with us at the end.
