About the project
The Lighthouse for Inclusion project was created by the young members of GR Regufe, a Portuguese non-profit youth association, to promote awareness and action towards inclusive and adapted sports for young people with disabilities. Inspired by their experience in the European project Sport Sense, which focused on connecting society with visually impaired communities through sport, the youth recognized the lack of awareness and opportunities in their local community regarding inclusive sports.
The project’s main objectives are to spread information about inclusive and adapted sports, encourage healthy habits that enhance both physical and mental well-being, and promote equal access to sports for young people with disabilities. In alignment with the Erasmus+ Programme, Lighthouse for Inclusion supports learning mobility, inclusion, diversity, and active citizenship through sport as a driver of social cohesion and European identity. To achieve these goals, the project brings together six countries representing diverse contexts in terms of sports participation and inclusion. Through this international cooperation, the project aims to foster creativity, dialogue, and collaboration, contributing to a more inclusive and equitable Europe where sport becomes a universal right accessible to all.
