The authors explore social and cultural issues surrounding the inclusion of persons with disabilities in sports, and how families can both support and engage in these activities. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eWhen sport is defined as all physical activities promoting physical and mental well-being, along with social integration and interaction, it opens the door for everyone in society to participate. Yet, families with disabled children often feel “disconnected” from social life leading to challenges in sport participation. Consequently, these families are rarely seen in public swimming pools, winter sports areas or public sports clubs. In this context family sport programs with disabled children (e.g., weekly family sports activities or family vacations) are an opportunity for individual and social integration\/inclusion. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe book examines the important contribution these types of projects have made toward social integration\/inclusion over the last 30 years in Germany. The authors discuss the findings of a recent study investigating the integration and inclusion of families with disabled children through sport activities, conducted by HAM-Hochschule für angewandtes Management (University of Applied Management) and the Bavarian State Ministry of Family, Labor and Social Affairs, Germany. New projects and initiatives are developing from the results and experiences of previous programs, which continue to gain recognition and support from public institutions, reflecting growing interest in developing comprehensive policy for diversity management.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eBiography\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAuthor(s):\u003c\/span\u003e \n\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe authors are all located at the Hochschule für angewandtes Management (University of Applied Management), Ismaning, Germany\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5 class=\"p1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eReviews\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\"This is an excellently written book on such an important topic. Sonia Galster, Ben Birzer, Loana Dörfler, Sandra Müller, and Peter Kapustin not only talk about inclusion in sports — they actually do something about it. The book illustrates important aspects of inclusion in and through sports and shows that real inclusion is hard to achieve. Yet, it is up to us to open sports for all and to include people of all ages, all sexes, all ethnic backgrounds, and with and without disabilities. The Family Sports Inclusive project by the University of Applied Management is a great example of how inclusive sports can be put into practice. This builds on the lifelong engagement of Prof. Peter Kapustin and establishes mechanisms and structures for inclusive sports in Germany and beyond.The book also presents and analyses selected other case studies. This leads to great recommendations for action that we can all put into practice, and that help clubs, organisations, and institutions to take that step. The call to action is here, and so are the means to act on it — now it is up to us.\"\u003cbr\u003e- Professor Dr. Manuel Sand, University of applied Management, Treuchtlingen\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ethics Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44866806448170,"sku":"nkr1789711281284","price":88.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"eBook","offer_id":44866806480938,"sku":"oiy1789711281285","price":94.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0721\/0709\/8154\/files\/family-sports-with-disabled-children-progress-towards-social-inclusion_1.jpg?v=1789711286","url":"https:\/\/layerreadywear.shop\/products\/family-sports-with-disabled-children-progress-towards-social-inclusion","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
