Macedonia: Poster [2002]

During September 2002 Parliamentary Elections in Macedonia, a disability NGO from the city of Prilep used these innovative and inexpensive stickers to assess and label polling stations as either "accessible" or "not accessible" to people with disabilities. If it found a polling site acceptable, it placed an "accessible" sticker near the entry door. If it found a polling site unacceptable, it placed an "inaccessible" sticker near the entry door. It also took photographs of each site visited. This project was conducted in cooperation with Polio Plus, an NGO in Skopje, under a grant from the Open Society Institute.
