MILAN – On Saturday 19 March, Inter Campus took part in the opening of a seventh accessible playground – located at the gardens of Piazza Ovidio, in the Forlanini district (Municipality 4) – as part of the “Gioco al Centro: playgrounds for all” project. Launched in 2018 by the Fondazione di Comunità Milano in partnership with the Municipality of Milan, the project promotes the creation of accessible playgrounds in every district of the city, with rides and paths suitable for children with physical and cognitive disabilities.
Inter Campus has played a part in this collective effort since its inception, organizing inclusive football-related activities led by its coaching and educational staff, who have developed sports games and activities – both in Italy and further afield – designed to make the skills necessary for enjoyment on the field accessible to all children.
Through a partnership with the charity La Nostra Comunità running until December 2023, creative workshops will be held at the park, while awareness-raising activities on the topics of disability and diversity will be launched in schools and places frequented by young people in the local area.
