Inclusive and adaptive sports initiatives
Overview
New initiatives and regional events are being implemented to promote social inclusion and active lifestyles for people with disabilities and senior citizens.
In Argentina and Spain, specific adaptive sports programs have been launched, including a free wheelchair tennis school in Córdoba, Argentina, and a boccia program in Algeciras, Spain, designed to improve physical coordination and social integration.
Further regional efforts include the XX Edition of the Entre Ríos Sports and Cultural Games for Older Adults in Argentina, which features various disciplines for participants aged 60 and older. Additionally, in La Paz, Bolivia, the Ministry of Health and Sports organized an inclusive sporting day titled ‘Capacities that inspire and sport that transforms’ to commemorate National Disability Day, involving approximately 800 participants in adapted athletic events.
