The Spanish Sports Association (ADESP) has announced this Tuesday that it has set up the National Commission for Inclusive Sportwithin the framework of the new Sports Law, approved last December in the Congress of Deputies.
According to ADESP, “The first objective of this commission is to create strategies and policies that favor full inclusion in all Spanish sport and at all levels: international, national and regional”.
“And to get it, a roadmap will be defined and developed to create the best inclusive scenario for athletes, federations and sports clubs“he adds.
The National Commission is made up of eleven national federations: cycling, swimming, winter sports, table tennis, badminton, triathlon, sports for the deaf, sports for people with physical disabilities, sports for people with intellectual disabilities, sports for people with cerebral palsy and brain damage acquired and sports for the blind.
In addition It is made up of two autonomous communities through their General Directorates of Sport: Extremadura and Region of Murcia; the Sanitas Foundation and the Spanish Paralympic Committee, which together with ADESP will lead the working group.
The DESP recalls that “the motor of this initiative worldwide is the International Paralympic Committeel, which has set 2026 as the limit for single-sports Federations to integrate athletes with different abilities.”
