I am pleased to provide a recommendation for Mr Normunds Pilips with whom Embassy of Sweden in Riga, Latvian Green movement, FES in Latvia and organisation for people with special needs Apeirons cooperated in the projects connected to the Baltic Sea Strategy - Sustainable Development of the Coastal areas of the Baltic Sea. From our collaboration I can conclude that Normunds Pilips works independently and effectively, willing to take on new responsibilities and often goes beyond what is required. His knowledge in the field of Universal Design, inclusive society and sustainability, were essential for the successful fullfillment of the project. I give Mr Normunds Pilips my best recommendations.

I have an ongoing cooperation with Normunds since 2013 when he came to the airBaltic with the first PRM awareness course. He is doing a great job to keep our cabin crew training instructors up to date with the best possible ways of assistance for different PRM passengers travelling with us. Creative presentations, two way communication, detailed answers to our questions and deep subject knowledge is Normunds business card.
