Οn the occasion of Women’s Day, an information day was organized at Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center (SNFCC), which gave the floor to women, mothers and female athletes with disability as well as mothers of children with disability, highlighting the contribution of sports to their own as well as their children’s quality of life.

Women for whom disability forms part of their daily lives have spoken on the social acceptance of themselves and/or of their children, giving their own perspective on the improvements – or non-improvements – they have identified in recent years. Sports now play a significant role in the well-being of people with disability by managing to shift interest to their potential. The speeches delivered on the information day pointed out that engaging in sports activities has a positive effect on the development of cognitive and motor skills, self-confidence and the degree of socialization, as well as that making an early diagnosis and intervention is important.
