In my diploma thesis I focus on the inclusion of people with disabilities in the municipality of Ptuj. The municipality of Ptuj received the document Municipality tailored to the needs of the disabled, but I wanted to find out how people with disabilities view it. In my dissertation I presented what accessibility means for people with disabilities, what they should be able to do for an equal and free life. I also list some of the obstacles they most often encounter in their daily lives. I did a qualitative survey. I conducted interviews with people with disabilities from the municipality of Ptuj. Through the answers, they gave me their view on how they think the municipality of Ptuj is adapted to their obstacle. I also found out what their feelings are about inclusion in the community and about access to institutions that are important to them. The results showed that some more adjustments would be needed to allow individuals greater autonomy and inclusion.
