The project F.E.I.B.

The project F.E.I.B. aims at developing social inclusion of marginalized people at both institutional and non-formal level through sport. Physical activity has enormous value in the context of social integration and can be adapted to facilitate access to people with disabilities. The “Fencing: equity, inclusion and belonging” project aims at developing social integration through fencing.

The Partners

The project partners have been actively working with people with disabilities in the field of this sport for many years. Their experience in the field has led them to actively think about how to improve the quality of this sports offerings by strengthening their skills to design, plan and organise events and activities that foster integration between disabled and able-bodied people through joint sports activities with participants from both groups, which will also have a positive effect on promoting tolerance and fighting discrimination, while mitigating the stigma that currently afflicts people with disabilities.
