Acknowledged around the world under the leadership of the United Nations, December 3rd International Day for Persons with Disabilities is an opportunity to increase public awareness on the issue.

In addition to government authorities and NGOs, it is also our duty to make sure that the disabled participate in life, contribute to the society, and benefit from the principle of equal opportunity. As Siemens Turkey, within the scope of our sustainability approach, we believe that we should focus on this issue not only today, but always. We would like to underline that we will continue paying due attention to this and other similar social issues.

On the International Day for Persons with Disabilities, I wish us all a world without hindrances.
