Why Inclusivity?

“For us, real estate is more than brick and mortar it is about creating places where people can thrive, building communities, and shaping lives.” - Khun Panote Sirivadhanabhakdi, FPL Group CEO 

Being part of a community is associated with a positive quality of life and all groups should be able to exercise their right to be part of one and to enjoy a quality life. And to do so, spaces must allow for physical, functional and social inclusion.

2019 Theme

2019's theme is Mall Inclusivity for Persons with Physical Disabilities (PwDs).  Research has found that more than 60% of persons with disabilities in Singapore report feeling excluded from the workplace and society. Much existing infrastructure is designed for the “average” person, but communal experiences are created and lived out in public spaces by everyone. Malls are important places of engagement where diverse groups of people are seen, heard and interacted with.  

 

Decide on your own specific challenge to solve as you interact with participating PwDs and journey with them to find out their experiences in visiting our malls.
