Aim
This program aims to dismantle physical, social, and psychological barriers that prevent people with disabilities from fully participating in recreational activities. Through inclusive climbing groups, children and youth with and without disabilities climb together, learning mutual responsibility, trust, and problem-solving. These playful and stimulating interactions help challenge stereotypes and foster a deeper understanding of diversity. The organization also offers inclusion workshops for companies and volunteers.
Outcome
Outcome
Creation of inclusive climbing groups that offer unique access to this sport for people with disabilities. Participants benefit from improved physical fitness, coordination, and strength, as well as a significant boost to their mental health (self-confidence, stress reduction, sense of belonging). The workshops contribute to broader awareness of inclusion issues.
