The inclusion of people with disabilities and mobility in rural areas are two elements that come together in this project.
The Family Association of la Armuña “La Besana” (Salamanca) and Services and Labor Initiatives create Acompaña2 to provide a job opportunity for people with disabilities in rural areas, making them feel useful and at the same time moving elderly people and people with reduced mobility around the territory, making it possible for them to live longer in their environment and have their basic needs covered.
This dual response means that people do not have to leave the rural environment and, at the same time, offers work for people who generally do not have great access to the labor market, with more emphasis on the villages.
One of the purposes of this is to promote a green and sustainable rural economy, since the vehicle used to make these trips is fully electric.
