Fast presentation :

1. Autistan is the “world of autistic” : This designates, in summary, everything that characterizes autism and autistic.
2. Autistan's diplomatic organization has the main purpose of’inform public authorities countries, so that they better understand the needs and difficulties of autistic people, for the purpose of a “Correct account of autism everywhere” allowing a “Accessibility for people with autism exposed to disabling situations“, to reduce “Socio-generated attacks (sensory, mental or other)”.
Our organization is “extra-nationale”, She does not “external interference”, It offers additional contributions thanks to a very wide approach, diverse, different, which allows very useful comparisons and reflections to improve public policies.
3. Autistic people do not suffer “autism” : They suffer from consequences of the absence of correct consideration of autism everywhere, and therefore of the absence of policies and public measures allowing accessibility thanks to the reduction of these external attacks.
4. For that, It is essential to start by understanding that “Autism” (which is a human difference with many qualities) is a different thing from “Autism disorders” (which are only problems, Objectives or subjective).
5. Autistic people must be able to “Learn non-autism” To live by adapting, But without complying with it that is to say without “obligation to become non-autistic”, Because we must preserve the qualities specific to autism, And you must avoid the many and dangerous defects and social traps, in particular the one which consists in creating self -esteem through the “Judgment possible by strangers”, which requires a kind of “Social image dictatorship” obliging to “glasses” (what is absurd, superficial, and particularly toxic to autistic).
6. It is imperative that autistic people are not upset in their interests or companies (Apart from the minimum managers of good manners), that they are not exposed to restrictions, over-protection or deprivation of freedom because of their autism.
Indeed, It is unfair but above all this prevents any positive evolution.
The positive development of the autistic person is only possible if he can follow “His own life path”, that is not ordinary, and which will be favored by an unlimited multitude of possibilities, choice, hazard, experiences, meetings, adventure, of trips etc., and not by the way : the restriction and aridity of an even more limited and restless life than that of most non-autist (who is very “Standardized and robotics”).
For that, It is imperative and essential that the parents of autistic people can be “educated in autism”.
7. Freedom and experimentation are therefore essential, and understanding these principles (Among many others that we can explain and demonstrate in detail) is essential for society to allow A better life for autistic : freest, fairer, more fulfilled, with the same level of possibilities and chances as non-autist, that is to say a “real life”, worthy and happy.
8. This would be possible if people who can explain these things were listened to carefully, And if the public authorities made efforts and understood that the necessary modifications are not abusive : these are corrections that are beneficial for the whole company.
Try to awaken attention, And to explain these things convincingly with examples and evidence “of real life” : This is the only goal of our organization.
