Drawing from our experience as international consultants, the team will create a site that drives economic diversification and positive social perceptions of disabled people, embedding the Social Model of Accessibility into our process and contributing to a positive future for People of Determination both native and foreign to the area.<\/p><p>The project is a key aspect of Saudi Arabia&#8217;s Vision 2030 agenda, a strategic framework designed by the Kingdom\u2019s leadership to diversify the economy and reduce oil dependency. The aim is to create a vibrant society, a thriving economy, and an ambitious nation. To achieve the goals of this transformation plan, a series of giga-projects were launched, including Qiddiya &#8211; which is being built to serve a powerful existing unserved market and fulfill demand from domestic as well as regional and international markets.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section
