Mismatched shoes day

On September 26, everyone is invited to participate in the social campaign “Mismatched shoes day,” which aims to promote public awareness and an inclusive attitude toward people with functional impairments, including mental health disorders.

Become an ambassador for the campaign – participate, organize your own activity, and share it! It can be an open house, a master class, or any other event that promotes awareness and cooperation.

Share your activity on social media using the hashtag #StepIntoAnothersShoes and #IekāpOtraKurpēs and become part of a movement that is creating a more inclusive society.

The social campaign “Step into Another’s Shoes” was launched by the Ministry of Welfare of the Republic of Latvia in 2023 to help reduce stigma and normalize that people with functional impairments, including mental health disorders, are an integral part of society.
