On March 9, 2025, at the Nizami Cinema Center, the premiere of the music video for the anthem "Ferqli Ferdler" (Different Individuals), dedicated to children with disabilities, was held for the first time in Azerbaijan.
Supported by the Ministry of Culture and organised by the "Ümid var" Inclusive Creative Union and the "Children's Happy Future" Public Union, the video has been sponsored by PASHA Holding.
The anthem was initiated and sponsored by the "Fərqli Fərdlər" International Congress, dedicated to individuals requiring special care, held with the support of the Heydar Aliyev Foundation and organised by Caspian Event Organisers. Members of the "Ümid var" Inclusive Creative Union participated in its creation. The music was composed by Tural Mammadli, with lyrics by Leyla Guliyeva. The anthem is performed by People's Artist Alim Gasimov, Honoured Artist Fargana Gasimova, and an inclusive children's choir of 15 members.
The choir includes children with various diagnoses—such as Down syndrome, autism, visual impairments, hearing and speech limitations, cerebral palsy, and other disabilities—as well as talented youth with typical development. The music video was directed by Ulviyya Konul.
At the premiere, other talents of these gifted children with disabilities will also be showcased. As part of this project, aimed at contributing to an inclusive society, screenings of the video, performances by the children, educational presentations by specialists, and panel discussions are planned at various educational institutions, including universities and both private and public schools.
The "Ferqli Ferdler" project aims to promote the integration of individuals with disabilities and provide them with broader opportunities for self-realisation.
