On March 20th, 2025, the ASD DISBOCCIA Association held a Local Webinar, leading to disseminate information about the Disabled SPORT – Erasmus +Sport Project which has been an event in its Italian place.
There were 30 people, attending this event that was held through the Google Meet platform. The Association counselor Mariana Ramirez and the Association president Elisa Dagmara Gili moderated it.
It was a very interesting meeting. After the moderators explained what the project purpose was, they were discussing the meaning of integration and simultaneous interaction between able bodied and disabled people, social interaction and raising awareness about cultural barriers’ elimination and an increasing interest about a future positive impact of the project in schools and leisure juvenile centers.
Among the participants of this even, there was the City Council member Bruna De Stefanis who is in charge of sports in the Pinerolo City council and Adriana Trombotto – a member of the Bricherasio City Council in charge of social and health policies.
This event allowed welfare organizations and Project Partners to spread the news among local disability and social associations. Some of them also gave the input to talk about the project on local media and the newspaper.
Therefore, the Project Partners were able to get a very good outcome started by the meeting and are hopeful to increase it as time goes on and the platform becomes part of a good practice.
