A three-day film festival, \u2018We Care\u2019 was inaugurated on September 24th at the Apeejay Institute of Mass Communication (AIMC) in Delhi. Every year, \u201cWe Care\u201d aims at breaking the shackles of the mindset of the individuals so that the stereotypical beliefs associated with the \u2018Differently abled people\u2019 can be debunked. It endeavors to build a sensitive outlook of students and the society at large on various issues associated with the \u2018Differently abled people\u2019 and make them realize that there are special skills which very much makes them fit to be called \u2018Specially abled people\u2019.<\/p>\n

The festival was organised in association with internationally recognised \u201cBrotherhood\u201d NGO and with the support of UNESCO, National Trust, UN Information Centre, . This is the sixth consecutive year that AIMC has hosted the festival. <\/p>\n
