Main Objectives

How does the program/ initiative demonstrate inclusion in sport?

1

-Train and develop ambassadors/ Inclusion

-Paralympic sport demonstration on a day at a specific event

2

-Inclusion of people with disability through football

-Inclusion of people with different disabilities within the biggest football club in Austria

3

-Increase number of people with disability for sport, promote sport for young persons with disability

As part of the implementation of the Paralympic School Day, we visited 130 primary schools in 17 counties and 60,000 schoolchildren went through the program. The project is being implemented during one school day (4-5 hours) in elementary schools throughout Croatia. A team of trainers (athletes with disabilities) and animators through 4 sets of different games, whether it is creative workshops, athlete’s interviews, or physical activities, reveal to the children the values of the International Paralympic Movement: from recognizing sporting achievements of athletes with disabilities, respecting and accepting individual differences, respect and acceptance of sport as a human right to the strengthening of social support in sport.  

4

-Social inclusion through sports, participation in physical activities and health

-Participation through sports

5

-To provide year round training and competition in a variety of Olympic type sport in a community setting for people with intellectual disabilities

-Athletes are involved in a sporting setting in their local community.

-The clubs are often linked to a mainstream club.

-Many initiatives take place in conjunction with mainstream clubs and athletes

6

-The main aim of Camp Abilities Ireland is to empower children with vision impairments to be physically active, encouraging and supporting them to continue to participate in sport and physical activity opportunities within their local communities.

-This program demonstrates inclusion as it gives volunteers, clubs and organizations, the knowledge of how to adapt their sessions, sports and activities for people with vision impairments.

-It also create advocates to spread that knowledge and the participants themselves become the most powerful advocates.

-This camp integrates with existing clubs, facilities and sports in the area and involves their coaches, volunteers and participants.

7

-To develop social/communication skills, encouraging social interaction and promoting healthy living through golf.

-Infused with evidence-based practices for teaching golf to individuals with ASD, #GameON Autism Golf is designed to build self-esteem and confidence in a fun, welcoming and supportive environment.

-The program encourages participants to learn golf skills while practicing specific autism learning objectives, including: communication, regulatory, motor and social skills.

-The program is specifically designed to enable people with ASD to learn golf skills in a manner which takes consideration of their learning styles and particular needs

– It provides a safe space to learn golf, with the goal of enabling a seamless transition to the golf course environment, after skill acquisition.

-The program places club football opportunities in the community club with participants becoming members of the club like any other child and training and playing opportunities available to them like any other club member all in a safe fun environment.

11

-To promote the sports knowledge / culture of athletes and promote an informed and autonomous view of the role of sport in the life of the person;

-To establish networks to support adapted sport through existing resources and families;

-To create accessibility conditions (times, technicians and spaces) that allow the adapted sport to take place under the same conditions as any sports practice oriented towards life goals.

-It strengthened the social bonds, created feelings of belonging to a team and of social valorization

-To create public awareness about people with intellectual disabilities or multiple disabilities and their social inclusion and non-discrimination.

-This ambitious and innovative project aims to promote broad access to sports for people with intellectual disabilities, especially in areas of sport where the lack of adequate means is an obstacle to participation.

-These actions work as an awareness tool, the visibility it gives to equal opportunities in sports practice and the combat that promotes the prejudice of disability.

13

-All students of the educational system have access to regular and quality physical and sporting activity, regardless of their condition;

-Promote the inclusion of children and youth with disabilities / disabilities / limitations

The rest can be worked on a regular or adapted basis. There are adapted regulations in Athletics, Swimming and BTT.

15

24

-Stimulating structural sports and exercise

-People with a physical disability are supported to structural participation in sport. They are linked to a top athlete who coached them in the process. A local coordinator helps to find a suitable sport. The athlete formulates individual objectives. Meetings are organized from the program and there is contact via a facebook community. The program was before, during and after the Paralympic Games. For the games there was contact via social media with the top athlete, during the games the athlete Fan and after the games there was playing together.
