This is so, more because of our lack of knowledge of this category of people, than the disregard for them.
This time, through cartoons, to give education messages to all of us, that this category of people have some physical disability or something else, while in other areas they can be very useful for society and by being active they do good to themselves and society.

We kindly welcome you in Ferizaj, a city that has three features that other cities do not have.
1. Ferizaj is a city with the year of foundation 1873, when it was born together with the Vienna-Thessaloniki railway.
2. Ferizaj immediately became a city, without previously being an inhabited place.
3. In Ferizaj is located the Bifurcation of Nerodima, a special phenomenon, where the river divides into two branches and never joins. The right branch joins the Lepenc River, Vardar and flows into the Aegean Sea, while the left branch joins the Morava River, Danube and flows into the Black Sea.
Let the cartoon serve as a bridge of cooperation between peoples even when there are meaningless conflicts and bloodshed in the world, but the cartoon breaks through borders with virtual exhibitions and penetrates where it is intended.
