ABOUT US
Our Goal
EMBRACE creates an enthralling audio-visual and augmented reality (AR) magazine experience. Readers are exposed to a global platform featuring disabled artists, creators, designers, and allies. Expanding realities by exposing readers to the largely overlooked and diverse disabled community.
Our Vision
EMBRACE seeks to inspire and educate. Our curated content features authentic stories, interesting events, engaging art, and lighthearted entertainment from around the globe. EMBRACE aspires to rouse creators and readers to create and to learn more about the world around them. Do more with your scroll time, expand your horizons, and amplify your reality.
3.8 million Canadians and 2.8 million Koreans identify as disabled, yet their representation lacks immensely. EMBRACE will provide a safe space for this community, and those wishing to support this community, to find representation and showcase creative talent. Our interactive magazine experience aims to help overcome the accessibility barriers that have been highlighted by the COVID-19 pandemic, but have existed for a long time.
