The initiatives that fell in Part 2 of the ICF - Contextual Personal Factors/environment, and described actions aimed at acquiring and developing products included in the component "Products and Technologies", 16 actions in the component "Attitude" aimed to promote awareness of the academic/non-academic communities, and 35 actions focused on "Services, Systems and Policies", aiming at bettering the selection process / exams, hiring interpreters, staff and teacher training, liaison with other community services.
