Abstract

Social impact assessment is especially necessary for non-profit projects involving people with disabilities, in particular, people with autism spectrum disorder or Down syndrome. An example of such an endeavor is the “InterAction fund” — an inclusive film and theater project that runs trainings, performances and film screenings involving people with Down syndrome. Apart from the obvious aim — to involve people with disabilities in an active creative and social life — the project also aims to show society how much these people need personal and professional fulfillment. The perception of people with Down syndrome, attitudes towards them and readiness to take action after getting to know them better became the main parameters to measure the social impact of the project.
