Afterwards, the students participated in the event, during which the students split up to four groups and passed through different experiential stations, in which they met and got to know the organization's instructors, people with different kinds of disabilities (Hearing, seeing, communicative, and physical). In the meetings, the instructors shared their personal stories, their challenges, struggles, and successes from their day-to-day life.

At the communicative disability station, the students met an instructor with Asperger's syndrome.

In the different experiential stations, the students learned about the disabilities they experienced, the personal struggles of the instructors with disabilities, and experienced the day-to-day challenges people with disabilities face.

Among the different stations, was a station that simulated hearing disabilities. The children played the "Telephone Game" in which they had to pass on a word to their friends and understand it by only reading lips.

In the physical disability station, the students experienced sitting in a wheelchair and performing simple everyday activities such as entering and exiting the classroom, picking up an object from the floor and more.
