As part of the Building Bridges project, project partners organized visibility and dissemination events in Spain, Serbia, Portugal, Ireland, and North Macedonia. These events gathered youth and sport workers, sport educators, and coaches of inclusive and adaptive sports to share the project results and promote the newly developed Training Module.The activities not only increased the use of project materials but also raised awareness about wheelchair basketball as a tool for social inclusion and participation of people with disabilities in sports.
Together, we continue building bridges towards a more inclusive sports community! 
Barcel’hona Sport Events from Spain, together with Association of wheelchair basketball clubs from Serbia, Club for Youth Empowerment 018 (KOM 018) from Serbia, Portuguese Basketball Federation from Portugal, Irish Wheelchair Association from Ireland and Association for sport activities of persons with physical disability – wheelchair basketball Hope Sport (WBC HOPE SPORT) from North Macedonia implements project “Building Bridges” in order to foster international cooperation in the field of wheelchair basketball. Sport serves not only to promote healthy habits but also stands out as a valuable instrument for fostering social integration and the inclusion of individuals. Engaging in sports helps bridge personal differences, making it easier for people with disabilities to integrate and become part of the communities. Project objectives are 1) To increase the competences and knowledge of the coaches who work with basketball players in wheelchairs, 2) To create opportunities for athletes in the wheelchairs and 3) To raise awareness and give visibility to wheelchair basketball and increase sporting activity among people with disabilities. Project is co-funded by the European Union, through Erasmus + Sport, in the period November 2024 – October 2025 and will be implemented in Spain, Portugal, Serbia, Ireland and North Macedonia.
