    Organizational structure: Abloom is a voluntary, non-profit organization with the goal of improving living conditions and quality of life and promote social inclusion for children and youth with disabilities and their parents. The most important thing for us is to combat established taboos, which unfortunately still exist more. Our members have access to free courses and theme days, and will automatically join in a global network that builds bridges between families who have children with disabilities. In addition, we offer conferences and discussion groups for parents, where it is possible to meet others in the same situation, Mini Abloom, a pop-up festival which runs all year round as well as lectures, debates, questions rounds and film screenings. Abloom has, in addition to abloom Film Festival, a department dedicated to film new technologies, with a multicultural staff - Baracca Films. The staff has strong expertise and experience from different areas of society.
