Festival #PeopleLikePeople
From March 30th, to April 3, 2025, the annual all-Russian inclusive festival #PeopleLikePeople is being held in Moscow and other regions of Russia. This is one of the largest inclusive events in the country.
The festival has been held since 2017 by a community of non-profit and government organizations working to support people with autism spectrum disorders.
The goal of the event is to create a space for dialogue, creativity, and interaction, where people with autism spectrum disorders and other developmental disabilities can openly express themselves, reveal their talents, and find support in a friendly community.
The festival is organized by associations of parental non-profit organizations, communities of people with autism, charitable foundations, and government institutions of education, culture, healthcare, and social protection.
