What does MiVaBo do?
The 3 main goals of MiVaBo
1: Bonaire has a modern disability policy
MiVaBo wants to ensure that policy makers, politicians and commercial parties participate in a modern disability policy on Bonaire and a proper implementation. To achieve this MiVaBo performs an active lobby.
2: Bonaireans are aware of the problems of the disabled.
Abled and disabled Bonaireans know their rights and obligations in the field of disability. Who has a disability, can better defend themselves. Who does not have limitations take others into account. To achieve this, MiVaBo organise public relations actions.
3: Disabled Bonaireans know their surroundings and available support
Disabled people know which places on Bonaire are, or are not, accessible to them. They also know what help is available and know how to find it. They know that this information can be found on the MiVaBo website.
All activities of MiVaBo result from these 3 goals. To achieve these goals, we work together with governments, politicians, retailers, tourism companies and social organizations in Bonaire, Curaçao, the Netherlands and the US.

Accessibility
Where can I go and where not?
Of this beautiful island, MiVaBo compiles a list of accessible and inaccessible buildings, streets and other places such as diving sites.
This list will be managed interactively by both MiVaBo and the owners and/or managers of these establishments and places. At this moment we can therefore only be of service if you email us personally.
