We started last year fron home, but always on the move for inclusion. Although we were able to meet again, physically the COVID 19 pandemic continued to highlight the huge gaps that still separate people with intellectual disabilities. However, the power of sport kept us in action, working as a team to overcome isolation and the physical and mental health challenges that the pandemic brought to thousands of people with intellectual disabilities across the country.
A very important achievement has been our virtual talks on menthal health during the pandemic. We have developed a cycle of 5 talks with the aim of providing emotional containment tools.
We have also generated an on line exercise program for people with and without intellectual disabilities. This program has provides a space for recreation and exercise during the pandemic.
In our Unified Schools program, we invite education systems to enrich their pedagogical practices in an inclusive climate.
