The project aims primarily to promote inclusion and diversity in the field of sport, in order to improve the reach of people with fewer opportunities, namely young people with disabilities aged 15-37 in Europe, to overcome the barriers faced by such groups in participating in sporting events and contributing to an inclusive environment that promotes justice and equality, and that meet the needs of the wider community.
The important events are
- Organization of sports activities with disabled people 2 times a week
- The proposed solution combines 2 sport tournaments for wheelchair basketball, co-events, and a strategically designed work plan with two interconnected work packages.
- Conducting research 3 times during the project - at the beginning, middle and end. The topic of the study is: "Correlation between specific basketball skills (which we will later be able to measure with the help of basketball tests), and general physical capacity - Analyzing the results of the research and creating a Kit
- -Organizing a sports event in Sofia / Bulgaria / on the topic: "Status of wheelchair basketball classes in partner countries and around the world."
