The Soulfuls

The Soulfuls is on a mission to close the opportunity gap for all women - no matter skin colour, ethnicity, sexual orientation, socio economic background and beyond. We are here to empower the next generation of women, and pave the way for a free, fair and inclusive future. We will continue the much-needed conversation about diversity, inclusion, and equity in the media and across industries in the Nordics. ABOUT US: The Soulfuls community was established back in 2018 by Aram Ostadian-Binai, who, after working 10+ years as an executive in media and fashion, saw the necessity to address the huge imbalance of representation of stories and talents from diverse backgrounds and female role models. "Fashion, creative and media industries might shape culture, but they don't reflect our cultural diversity." - Aram From glossy fashion magazines to children books and social media to television, over 76% of the publishing and media world are predominantly white (and male). This number only goes higher when it comes to the highest positions. As a result of this power structure, diverse talents are having a hard time getting the opportunities and visibility they need to move up the ladder. Diverse voices and stories remain unpublished and unheard - or heavily filtered through a white male gaze. This power structure has another backlash: the impact that it has on the future of our young girls. When young people were asked to name a female entrepreneurial role model, only 2% said they were able to. In some countries, this number was as low as 1%. "Female role models are key to driving change in their industries and empowering girls to think bigger and aim higher. It's hard to imagine it if you can't see it." - Aram The Soulfuls is here to change this narrative for all girls. They need to feel seen, heard and included. We need better representation of female role models and talents from all backgrounds to smash through glass ceilings.

Foundation PERSONS WITH DEVELOPMENT PROBLEMS ASSISTANCE

Autistic individuals are characterized by disorders of varying degrees of communication skills, social interactions and limited, stereotyped patterns of behavior. They are a "mosaic" of strengths, deficits and deviations. Sociocommunicative problematic is often combined with intellectual deficit, with delay in language development, with deficit of control on impulses and hyperactivity. Parents are also different resources (emotional, family, support systems) to cope with the social trauma inflicted on them. That's why we chose for ours: Mission: Especially important for people with developmental disabilities is, to have equal opportunities for development, equal chances for a dignified and independent life. Main goal: Bridging deficits through services, developing personal potential, consistent with the individual needs of everyone. A bit of our history: In 2011, parents of autistic individuals, friends and like-minded people, we established the Developmental Disabilities Foundation to improve the quality of life of individuals with developmental disabilities. Everything we do is to overcome the consequences of social trauma for persons with developmental problems and their relatives. By providing social services in the community, we aim to build self-reliance skills that promote social inclusion. We hold licenses for: therapy and rehabilitation; community work; training for the acquisition of work skills; support for the acquisition of work skills; informing and consulting; advocacy and mediation and day care. Each person is unique and has the right to happiness, equal opportunities to achieve it, equal chances for a dignified and independent life. That is why we created and are developing the Center for inclusive and non-formal education "Art and Jump". In the informal space of the Workshop, children and young people learn through experiences while working and having fun in the Wool and Textiles workshop, the Ceramics workshop and the Digital Competences workshop. We implement an innovative program of creative educational modules that develops cognitive skills, promotes personal development and increases motivation to face everyday challenges. As a team, we are clearly aware of social dignity and responsibility. Therefore, we strive for the formation of empathy, tolerance and acceptance of one's own and others' "differences" in the spirit of respect for human dignity and value in society. "Being different is a privilege" Autistic individuals need a variety of appropriate forms of support throughout their lives. Therefore, it is necessary to develop and implement individual projects for independent living for each of them. Our foundation pays the necessary attention to the group dynamics in order to build an interpersonal relationship and at the same time relationships in the social environment. We all know that in Bulgaria there is no network organization of services for people with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) at all ages. Therefore, one of the guiding principles in the management of our organization is to ensure the continuity of services for children, youth and adults. We are currently working with the Autism - Education, Future and Opportunities Association. Combining ideas, resources and tools, we have found an appropriate solution to the problem of the "child with autism in secondary school" challenge. We support the Association in their activities for the introduction of the Competent Learner (CLM) model. In the House we will further develop and upgrade the model "Workshop for the development of cognitive skills and increase the capacity for autonomy", as well as Dance-Motor Therapy for Psychosomatic Development, which we are currently implementing under the Program of Sofia Municipality for Social Innovations. We will apply innovative management, continuously and long-term, so that we can simultaneously meet social needs and create new social relationships and cooperation. Working with parents and siblings is another key moment in our planned activities. The effect of therapies and rehabilitation for people with developmental problems is insufficient if it is not integrated with psycho-social interventions with the whole family. Another important goal of ours is the creation of supported employment, employment support, and social enterprise for our users. We already have a working creative studio in ceramics, Art and Jump Workshop. We plan to develop resilience and create work skills in the field of applied arts for young people with disabilities.
