Director of the Tourist Organization of Vojvodina, Mrs. Natasa Pavlovic on this occasion pointed out a ten-year effort TOV-a tourism that is available to all, and people with disabilities, the elderly and mothers with children in wheelchairs. She recalled the excellent cooperation TOV with the school "Dr Milan Petrovic" specialized for children with disabilities and persons with disabilities from birth to inclusion in society.

For the next year provided funds intended for the promotion of people with disabilities, which will adequately to showcase our province.

- If in two or three years we can move some of that border, and ensure that there are one or two cars in every city that transports persons with disabilities, persons in wheelchairs and blind people that can go to a picnic, galleries, museums, monasteries, theaters, cinemas, restaurants, we did the right thing. And it's all part of the tourist offer of a city. I think we're on the right track, that we gain media, which can contribute to promoting and raising the awareness of the population, especially as "emotions stirred up", they realized the essence and want to help. I'd be proud if in two years in tourist centers such as Vrnjačka Banja, Kopaonik, Zlatibor, Srebrno Jezero, Koviljaca, a dozen facilities accessible to persons with disabilities, as well as in Belgrade and Novi Sad, which should certainly have an ear for such tourism offer - said Mr. Darko Ivic.
