Equality and equity in sports for the disabled

Equality and equity in sports for the disabled. [Newspaper] (2020)



Abstract

FOR most able-bodied individuals, participating in sports and recreational activities is somewhat routine in their daily lives.

But not so for those with disabilities.

For the disabled, there are barriers to sports that deter them from the physical, mental and social benefits that could be had from such participation.

Among them are lack of understanding and awareness of how to include people with a disability in sport; limited opportunities and programmes for participation, training and competition; and the lack of accessible facilities, such as gymnasiums and buildings.
