ABOUT CREDITS CONTACT

L’Arche International invited 34 people with an intellectual disability from 34 countries on the 5 continents, to have their say about societal questions.

In a collection of prolific interviews, “Words of the World” has chosen to share 6 themes and 5 significant portraits with you.

However, the world map offers you an enlightened insight into the singularity of each person within their culture.

‘Words of the World’ invites you to see the world from their perspective. Our ambition is simple: to explore, with you, the mystery of human diversity.
