One of the main goals of our CSR For Parasport project is to make good practices related to the investment in parasport visible to the general public. Please welcome our fourth and final summary of good practices, which comes from SLOVAKIA! 22 parasports are present in Slovakia, including team sports, which require strong partners, also from the business side. Kaufland significantly supports para-hockey, which is an emerging team sport in Slovakia, also in the para division.

We're shining a light on the remarkable journey of Karé Adenegan, a Paralympic athlete whose experiences offer profound insights into the world of disability sports. Facing exclusion in school sports, Karé found her beacon of hope and inspiration in the Paralympics. In her own words, "At school, it was difficult to be included in sport, and watching the Paralympics gave me the realization that disabled people can do elite sport." This powerful statement captures the essence of her journey – a path from exclusion to excellence, challenging stereotypes and opening doors for athletes with disabilities. Join us as we explore Karé's inspiring story, a narrative that celebrates the spirit of inclusivity and the boundless potential of every athlete.

For the past two weeks, the Kenya Paralympic sitting volleyball team has been training in preparation for the upcoming world Paralympic qualifiers at Kasarani Gymnasium. The players hope to be fit and in good shape to face various teams across the continent in November. Paralympic sports can be used as a tool for disability inclusion through various strategies and initiatives that help promote understanding, respect, and equal opportunities for individuals with disabilities. The sport provides a platform to challenge stereotypes and misconceptions about people with disabilities (PWDs). By showcasing the incredible athletic abilities of Paralympic athletes, society's perception of what individuals with disabilities can achieve is broadened. It therefore offers an opportunity to educate the public about various types of disabilities and the challenges individuals face. Promoting awareness and understanding can help reduce stigma, and discrimination and support inclusive participation. Local sports programs, schools, and communities can organize adaptive sports events, allowing PWDs to engage in physical activities alongside their able-bodied peers. Overall, using Paralympic sports to support disability inclusion requires a multi-faceted approach that encompasses societal attitudes, policies, education, and accessibility. It's about creating an environment where individuals with disabilities can thrive, contribute, and be valued.

The Paralympic Games and national competitions have been a testament to their incredible talent and unwavering determination. Programmes like those offered by the South African Sports Association for the Physically Disabled (SASAPD) provide crucial platforms for these athletes to compete and excel. Did you know? According to the International Paralympic Committee, South Africa has consistently produced some of the world's top Paralympic athletes! This proves that with the right support and opportunities, young people with disabilities can achieve greatness. Sport is more than just physical activity. It promotes overall well-being by: Building physical health, boosting self-esteem, and encouraging social inclusion. The Western Cape Association of Persons with Disabilities (WCAPD) is proud to support the inclusion of persons with disabilities in all spheres of life, including sports! We're committed to advocating for programmes and opportunities that empower young athletes with disabilities to reach their full potential. #wcapd | #YouthMonth | #personswithdisabilities | #contactus | #youthsports | www.wcapd.org.za | #SASAPD

Well Channel 4 has done it again - resetting the bar in #authenticrepresentation and digging into the harmful tropes that keep parasport (and disability in general) from achieving parity with the Olympics. I cannot speak highly enough of the team at Channel 4 and their efforts to mainstream disability in all of their programming. This is an example to follow for any company that is truly invested in disability inclusion - there is no summit of this mountain, no end of the road. No 100% scores and no perfection. Disability inclusion in business is, like any other go-to-market strategy, an exercise in humility and constant progress. Brands such as Channel 4 who are able to recognise the improvements they can make and act upon them - and own that imperfection - should be celebrated. Accountability and transparency cultivate trust and recognition within the #disabilitycommunity. #disabilityinclusion the Valuable 500

Who says disabilities can prevent you from achieving your dreams?

Accessibility and Inclusion isn't always about big organisations making huge changes. Sometimes it is individuals doing small things to bring happiness. So much love and respect for Ricardo and Skate Anima. #accessibility #AccessibilityInclusion #inclusion #disability #DisabilityInclusion

Really good interview in #TheGuardian with my friend and successor but one as ParalympicsGB CEO. David Clarke OBE, PLY is ideally placed now to lead this greater activism. In 2012 we adopted the vision "through sport, inspire a better world for disabled people." The initial focus was on the sport and the athletes and their ability not just to inspire but challenge perceptions of disability. A decade on the confidence we have in that provides the platform for a more challenging agenda. How can we as society move beyond empathy and genuinely pursue inclusion in a way that enables rather than accommodates? https://lnkd.in/gCV82s-P
