I was biking back from a meeting at Karaj Beirut and saw people surrounding this car. I saw a wheel chair. And it took me a couple of seconds to realize that. A man with disabilities was demonstrating his invention that makes it easier for him to use his car!

I asked many questions to understand the invention. It's a pulley system that pulls him into the car. And pulls the wheel chair onto the roof!

A lady that I spoke to is called Doha Yahoufi. She is from an organization called ESIP ( economic and social inclusion project ). If you want to know more and even meet Fadi, the man in the picture, you can contact her. Her contact information are in the business card I attached.
