About BIAS
The AFTERMATCH – Life beyond sport project, completed in 2018, was directly used in this new project. It was a project during which we examined which skills of former athletes are particularly useful on the labour market. After a few years, the opportunity arose – to bring together most of the same partners, as well as people working in other institutions, who want to develop and improve this idea using their experience. The AFTERMATCH 2.0 project indicates and emphasises that the dual career of an athlete is also the ability to create an environment favourable to self-development by the athlete himself and to indicate the benefits of implementing professional activities through elements such as Corporate Social Responsibility of Sport, work – life – balance and, of course, two career paths.
This project has the following general objectives:
- EU-wide exchange of methodologies and practices on the inclusion of children with intellectual disabilities and ASD, focussing not only on the single child who “needs to be included”, but on the whole sports class: how we can teach “how to be inclusive through sport” to all children attending judo or martial arts classes.
- Exchange of practices at EU level in Inclusive Training Session open to local stakeholders (other sports organisations and families) in the 3 project countries (Italy, Portugal, Ireland)
- Promoting the inclusive practice of martial arts for children with intellectual disabilities and ASD through videos and social media coverage of the project
