The FINTA*Bauen collective is making Switzerland barrier-free
In Switzerland, many restaurants, cultural venues and meeting places are still not accessible for people with disabilities. This excludes them from participating in cultural and social life. The association “Gemeinsam bauen wir neu” (“Together, we build anew”) and the Avanti network are working on fixing up the future: FINTA*Bauen is a collective of women, intersex, non-binary, trans and agender people from the construction and trades sector. They work closely with these demographics – with and without disabilities – to understand and meet the real needs of everyday life.

«FINTA*Bauen makes architecture in Switzerland more equal and inclusive.»
