Publication of the book "My Way", 2019

The author of the book, Admira Robin, is a long-time volunteer and the head of the former unit of Institute Circle in Velenje, a disabled woman, a newcomer, a strong and energetic woman who does not let her disability block her way to achieving her goals, personal development and the desire to live a full life. The author emphasises the need for cultural and linguistic integration and acceptance of the culture of Slovenia and also wants to motivate people from vulnerable groups that volunteering is an added value for the individual.

​

With the publication of the book by support of the Municipality of Velenje, the Institute Circle wanted to promote solidarity and to present volunteering as a way of social, cultural and linguistic integration of a wide range of vulnerable social groups and a concrete measure for social activation, especially of the unemployed.

 

Volunteering is important for vulnerable individuals to affirm their own abilities, to strengthen their sense of self-worth, to maintain and expand their social network. Everyone, regardless of their current life situation, can help to the best of their ability and thus do an important job. It is important that everyone is accepted equally, has the same opportunities, is valued and respected.
