Class 2024
from capca to abundance
The success of Creative Approaches to Participatory Community Advocacy 2024 led Fionnathan Productions to co-develop a project that supports collective entrepreneurship through individual community action and collective community action through individual entrepreneurship.
Fionnathan Productions is organizing a new Abundance project from September 2025 to March 2026
for Irish adults with Down syndrome and their chosen support persons.
The CAPCA and Abundance training, will help you to design collective community actions and support you to create entrepreneurial plans and prototypes. We offer you everything you need to move toweard your dreams.
Financed by Rethink Ireland and by the Irish Department of Children, Disability and Equality,
the whole project is free for accepted participants.
Our Story
We believe that people with Down syndrome have important contributions to make in society, but that they are often blocked from sharing their gifts.
We aim to change that, by providing an education into what Citizenship entails, and to give opportunities to experience Community Leadership.
