[Music]

let’s start with an activity

directly please the paper

they have the house in four parts

to a horizontal line a line

vertical sa in origami by folding it or with

the pen ready vertical line in

horizontal line while they are

I ‘m going to ask you to please

think of a great electronic device

or almost as if they had asked

to Santa Claus the last cell phone a super

tablet a computer video game camera

digital or a uaw device of this and

now they will try to draw it in the

first box

when I tell him to try to draw what is

you do not create two hours thinking about it

as it was said by a quick fast neighbor of

this is because want to make a tablet

make the rectangle litho and a doll

inside the buttons or a picture like that

is that they tell me that it is a television

make him dolls buttons do some

thing this is done very quickly the

quickly make then the first

drawing ribbon in 5 seconds parents of

first drawing but they did it in the

second but he did

let’s think about the device and we would go

quickly does not make you too

details or many details very little

this good now please all

raise the pen with the hand that

they are drawing with which they are

coming up quickly show the

pen now passes in the pen to the

another hand and now in the second box

they make the same drawing in the middle of the

fast time fast fast fast the

same computer the same tablet itself

cellular but fast fast fast fast

try to play the same device in

half the time this good fast

fast fast 5 4 3 2 1

time of that until we come now with

that same hand that they just played with

that same hand that they just played we’re going

please ae

put it on the third box

I’m looking forward to the third box

and now comes a very big challenge is going

explain how you do not panic

I close my eyes I make the drawing loose

pen and looked how it was

this no longer cheat me this is already

it is with closed eyes that this does

what they are seeing me also close

the eyes and do it when they finish

draw loose the pen and there it

open your eyes you have five seconds to

doing it really is very difficult is

difficult is complicated and the funny

that will be left to you today is very difficult

that a super well done drawing is

now the last thing I asked them yesterday to

drop the pen and open the

eyes to many hundreds of pencils in the

true hand well hands no one

have the pen and the hands of the

hands that are now going to be the last and

hugo without using his hands how to do

As we are in a chair I am going to

let’s hold if they want then give the

little leaf with their hands but they can not

pencil between I do not know with the mouth with the

feet with the arm crouch kneel

try to do the latter and there were

that device is in 10 seconds to

doing it they will realize that it is

complicated is difficult

that is, it is not a situation,

comfortable and I’ll explain why

a moment is an activity of

awareness of something called ponte

in my place

this results that 10% of the population

world suffers some kind of disability

that the building and it was difficult to use the

device be thus draw them sorry

true that to draw was not difficult

those who played a tablet a

computer a cell phone a digital camera

imagine using those devices with what

that we just simulated how he would handle

a cell phone a computer without seeing how

would handle a video game control and in

her hands

many live close to the cell phone

He also imagine

place without hands like they would then

many people in the world have

difficulties due to his disability not only

to use those devices but also

to bathe to eat to dress

to play to study for all

day- to-day activities but then

the figure gets a little bit more

complicated in Colombia because in

colombia the figure does not rise to 15 to 20

percent of the country’s population

because it is for causes such as war

Accident and poverty because and

what happens more serious is because

contextualized Colombia for example from the

war is also the violence part

intolerance on mother’s day or in

Christmas are only the most violent days

of the year the families meet

celebrate and what there is is pure dead

there is a lot of violence in those days

special and for example a case of

intolerance that marked me a lot in my

work reaching people a person

of the field that is missing a hand and when

I asked him why and what had he

past that he was drinking in a bar he

He fell asleep drunk on a sidewalk and

happened to someone and it seemed funny

hit him with a slap on the face and cut off his hand

and that story because the lord does not have

the hand or in the poverty part also

there is something that attracts a lot of attention and

it’s because poverty that has to go

poverty with a very simple disability

the son of almost any of you

I’m sure the nephew whatever it is read

a fever anything and they take it to the

hospital two gothic and was improved in the

countryside

many people with limited resources

let go this fever headache

fever and the peeling ends agreement for

whole life or blind or anything

there are many disabilities also because

cause of poverty and all this is good

there is something very important here too or

very difficult and in the social barrier

cultural

this is what it is basically

imagine a student in the classroom

class

the barrier does not have so much

student with disability for being in

a wheelchair and not 40 companions

pointing to him saying the invalid

different

Looking at it weird comes the educated class

in sports physics everyone is going to play

professional football and do not you feel

know how to do bar to the teacher is not

prepared for the class is a barrier

social and cultural that is also social

or cultural

there are two big ends in this and they are

that the two are equally bad

overprotect today let’s do what

to embarrass

when a person arrives with

disability in a village many times

they say that is from the devil or something and

they keep it hidden in a room or

is a being to not show the public

but at the other extreme is when in a

family super good there is someone with

disability and novices since he can not

study can not do anything and that

Overprotect him and he’s as good as with

some milestones overprotected and both

they are at home without being able to study

have friends and work without having life

those are cultural and social barriers

here is going to give you a very

simple

in the image we asked how would

to call him because it ‘s the terms

we have a barrier when we say to and the

monolith the sordid and I do not know what then

what would be the right term for that

person in a wheelchair

who can think of something to say and as

refer to disabled disabled

wheelchair person with mobility

reduced

then I picked him up the way more

creative and simple and says my name

Alberto is not seeing disability

is to think so technically is to humanize

remember that to that social barrier

cultural overcome it with something so simple

as a human being this is good and other

very important barriers and I in these

barriers to inclusion what kind of

barriers can be all barriers

that a person with a disability in the

day by day and some of these are going to

surprise I said the school

because because the teacher is not

prepared be they leave items as one

that came out in Colombia that says you should

have educational inclusion and the

teachers dies of fright and older

the teacher with 40 inserts then 40

children in class and that’s what they put

two people with down syndrome and one

blind person and a deaf teacher

our disability does not know how it feels

impotent encartados was already I do in

everything but the law says that it has to

include then are not ready

For that

another topic for example full

see which communication is a

communications barrier when

maybe in sign language

a greeting is not denied to anyone and that

it’s a phrase that always

they taught and a deaf man approaches them and what

say you will know how to answer the language

of signs

let’s fast a language course of

Two minute sign

good morning hand to the chin we lower the

another hand on it is manually and

about that is good is good we take the

hands and we open them as and when

we are opening we separate the little fingers

because they are the rays of the sun good morning

good morning good afternoon is almost the same

easy the same good chin and hand and

we paste here as in the area of the clock

of this

good afternoon and good night as cover

Sun

simply good and as the sun was a

ball that assumes we grabbed it and what

we keep good night

already know how to communicate with the person

over three are small barriers that

they are there and there are other barriers like

example the barrier in transportation and

which

go then a disabled area go

f to have to go get a taxi and

is in a wheelchair and the taxi driver

ask for you alone or under the chair

and that’s not a joke or is ask

anyone and it has happened to him

then there are some cases of exclusion the

labor exclusion

I know a psychologist who has three

years looking for a job because he’s in

wheelchair that has to do like

limitation being in a wheelchair

to be a psychologist, absolutely nothing

nothing

then there are many barriers the subject

inclusion and others that are very basic

but he explained them in a little while

who ever when going to the cinema

buy a ticket in the front row

who liked to say and I want to educate

first row

no one is impossible and where are they?

the rows for chairs for people

with disabilities without the spaces are

in the first row to a prepaid your

ballot and outside you have to sit on the

first row the special chairs

on the buses where they are for people

with disability when passing the box

register

the first two you have seen one

rush report that can pass that box

register so uncomfortable that prison of

goal I know who gets in there and

was that with crutches with a baby

it is not impossible if one puts with

the second one is back then it has

have to sit forward because there are two

chairs there are marks or the last one for

explain and understand what are the

cultural barriers

are you in the church of the

people are in a wheelchair or

any disability and they have 20

stairs and a ramp and it turns out that the

ramp is marked with the disability logo

someone to explain to me why they put him

to that and then disability be so that

they draw him and the crazy guy from the

accessibility wheelchair for

have someone ask for it to be known that

one way you can go through there is that the

person in a wheelchair had

possibilities already had decision or the

stairs or the ramp not down that ramp to

turn the wheelchair for that

ramp her lady with the stroller

crutches baby the seller of

mango and everyone who needs that

accessibility go through there is this way of

simple

the accessibility of being for all and that

barrier we must overcome here some

examples of how you beat in that

disability supposedly this woman

Adriana Macías has a disability

her arms are missing but she is

mom she is home to her she is happy is

international lecturer

when I had the opportunity to meet her

in an event I committed the big erased and

give him a handle of colombia sa

embassy and a handle it communities

of unpacking that and how it’s going to put

in the hand that he did not have then yes there is

to be very gross

so I was watching to see her how

I reacted and the most beautiful thing was that

lifted one foot lifted the other unpacked

devotedly lifting the handle

plastic put on the handle went back to

fold the plastiquito opened the backpack

with his feet the closing quarter the bag

to not vote on the floor and thanked me for

the handle I think

disability

mine then I was surprised with

cases like those

this man norbey salazar he is

Colombian he is a genius of

computers works to have our

very good is professional of everything but

it’s supposed to be an area with

visual disability is a genius of

computing he handles the cell phone without seeing

with something called screen readers

and it is wise in this but between

surprising is that for example in these

days there was a tutorial to youtube recording

the screen

of his cell phone teaching how to hack and

download music

how many are already able to record the

cell phone screen and know how to download

music and the blind man and he does it is

disability we already have talents

Christmas an awesome

This woman Jennifer Canaveral

supposedly hearing impairment is

arquitecta is a lecturer

international cousy I do not know that today to

the life sheet to this woman is brutal and

guess what is the super talent she

you lips in five languages five

Languages to read the lips

disabled disabled you and

me how many here handle five

languages I was reading lips

then there are cases that do not put

think about them and fuck strong not

then this other man pablo pineda

paulo miguel pineapple is also

international lecturer is an actor

came out for in ten movies was the

first person with down syndrome in

graduating from college after

born dr sometimes give us more studied

that he saved and in his lecture that

can be in one of those here in

Medellin is telling me it is saying

to the public

good hey what he says there is a phrase

that I can not read it all we are

disabled for some things and

trained for others

so you can not talk about

disability but capabilities

different and from an example how many of

those in the audience are capable

to drive from piloting a helicopter

here are some all those

disabled to handle a

helicopter was the example that gave us and

He left us all as it is true

then what disabilities

then here what is in recess

disability is not disability is no longer

limiting is not something not disability not

it’s inability but in to help the

Inclusion of people with disabilities and

two giant barriers ignorance and

high cost are giant barriers to

support the inclusion of people with

disability

the help for a person with

disabilities are incredibly costly to

the students to drive with the foot is worth

one million pesos a software for the

computer for a blind to 5 million

of weights a device for a blind deaf man

to handle the computer is worth 25

millions of pesos that still like seven thousand

dollars to everything is too expensive in

quito must be the United States

imported

then questions like this

here is a person who does not have his

arms how can you use the computer

if you do not have an arm and good with the

feet is difficult you would be able to

operate a computer with your feet

It is true that then did a little

my work already to enter context

who called ending time and I

that what I do I ‘m a fan of

technology

my glasses that I have here you can do

a pair of bone conduction glasses is a

technology that I can answer a

call to the cell phone and listen

directly through the bone or clock

is a blood talking clock

love cell technology

video games all devices

I worked 14 years selling your device

of imports

I got tired and wanted to do social work

help that is difficult that to me

I like technology so much

it makes it difficult for older adults to people

with disability

then one of my great heroes

macgyver I do not know if they remember him

he had his red super knife and other things

and the game and there is in a situation

of revised danger that was out there and

he was making a plane and his

bad then with that low mentality

cost is that I started to generate aid

Japanese with disability to beat that

ignorance barrier high cost

as a gender

me a solution to that person who does not

He has his arms and wants to use the

computer

the solution was very simple suit two

materials imported from china

specialized one is called ladle

plastic and the other is a generic mouse

this then with a plastic ladle and

with a generic

I’m going to make a skin mouse like

It really is very simple

just what I’m going to do is take

a knife

we take a knife and in the part of

back that is up here that is mouth of

some team with the low then with a lot

patience wearing

or we took a bike cut tala shout and with

the vote had then there yes we stretch with

more desire to get more security

so

bush

and like the cooking recipe because no

we have time suppose that we already did

the hole and it was very nice

then we take the ladle and add

mouse with the ladle and we have a

voice to handle with the foot I put it in

the floor put your foot on and you can

move with my skin good mouse and the

final message is that

we work together we work in network

you have to change the mentality side the

social barrier the cultural barrier

understand that the aids are there

if we overcome that barrier of

ignorance and the high cost

we are bringing knowledge

free we are having all these

helps and we can all work in a network

so that there is to achieve a society

inclusive that that is everyone’s task

thank you very much

[Applause]
