Africa-Press – Angola. <\/strong><\/span>At least 70 coaches will be trained from the third to the seventh of December, in Luanda, as part of the development of the \u201cSpecial Olympics\u201d, an international organization created to integrate people with intellectual disabilities into society through sport.<\/b><\/p>\n

This action results from the signing of a cooperation protocol signed Tuesday between the presidents of the Special Olympics of Angola, Jean-Jacques da Conceic\u0327a\u0303o, and the African Special Olympics Confederation, Charles Nyambe.<\/p>\n

The ceremony had the authorization and testimony of the Ministry of Youth and Sports, led by Rui Falca\u0303o, in an event that took place at the headquarters of the institution responsible for sports and youth in the country.<\/p>\n

During the training period, coaches will be specialized in methodologies and rules taking into account the special characteristics of athletes in athletics, basketball, football, gymnastics and swimming.<\/p>\n

According to the president of Special Olympics Angola, Jean-Jacques da Conceic\u0327a\u0303o, this training will allow the effective development of sports among these athletes with intellectual disabilities.<\/p>\n

The objective, according to the former basketball player, is to expand activities in different modalities with a view to holding national and international competitions.<\/p>\n

He said this is the highest point that Special Olympics Angola has reached since the implementation of the project in the country, in 2022.<\/p>\n

According to the interlocutor, Angola already has table tennis well underway and in the near future could begin organizing internal competitions.<\/p>\n

In turn, the President of the African Special Olympics Confederation, Charles Nyambe, stated that the cooperation protocol will allow the training of technicians, hoping to achieve the best results in the learning process.<\/p>\n

He explained that the first phase of the project foresees inclusive work between athletes with and without disabilities in a unified way, to avoid possible \u201cbullying\u201d behavior and improve the integration of practitioners in society.In Angola, Special Olympics was launched in 2022 within a social inclusion sports development program, led by the Ministry of Youth and Sports.<\/p>\n

Data from the Ministry of Education reveal that by 2019 there were 33,612 students in the country in the special education subsystem, enrolled in 795 schools, 20 of which were special and 775 were inclusive.<\/p>\n

In the world, this movement began in 1968, in the United States of America (USA).<\/p>\n

Special Olympics is an international organization created to support people with intellectual disabilities to develop their self-confidence, interpersonal skills and sense of achievement.<\/p>\n

Among others, Special Olympics holds the World Games every two years, alternating between Summer Games and Winter Games.<\/p>\n

Remember, in Angola there is another institution, the Angolan Paralympic Committee (CPA), which is responsible for the development of sport among people with disabilities.<\/p>\n

Created on November 10, 1994, the organization operates athletics, football for amputees, wheelchair basketball and weightlifting.<\/p>\n

It has in mind the launch of standing and sitting volleyball, goalball, tennis and the relaunch of swimming.<\/p>\n
