1. They talked about the 2019 Hear our Voices conference.
This conference was held in Graz, in Austria.
Many self-advocates took part in the conference
to discuss the right to vote and to be elected.
EPSA members discussed about the things
that should be improved for the next Hear our Voices conference.
For example: there should be more time
for the participants to get to know each other.

5. EPSA members talked about improving inclusion at Inclusion Europe.
They said that Inclusion Europe is doing well
in including everyone in their work.
But there are still some problems.
For example: Inclusion Europe should not use difficult words.
6. EPSA members also talked about including more young people, women
and people with complex support needs in self-advocacy.
They talked about some problems
and what to do to solve these problems:
![Discrimination Woman](https://www.inclusion-europe.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Discrimination-Woman-150x150.png)
- Women are more often than men excluded from jobs
and cannot take part in society.
EPSA members talked about organising
events, conferences and trainings
for women with disabilities to include them more.
![institutions](https://www.inclusion-europe.eu/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/institutions-150x150.jpg)
- People with complex support needs
are more difficult to work with.
It’s more difficult for them to come to meetings
because many of them are in institutions.
They also have problems of accessibility.
EPSA members talked about asking
for more money to solve this problem.
![young people](https://www.inclusion-europe.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/young-people-150x150.png)
- It is difficult to involve young people in self-advocacy.
Young people have other interests.
EPSA members talked about organising events
for young people to talk about topics that are interesting for them.
For example: friendship and the Erasmus programme.
In the Erasmus programme, young people get to work
and study in a different country.
![Work together](https://www.inclusion-europe.eu/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/work-together-150x150.png)
EPSA members also talked about involving
other self-advocacy groups in their work.
They want to exchange experiences
and work together.
