During the “Afeji Santé” event organized by Afeji Hauts-De-France on the 16th of March, Afeji’s ActivAbility team conducted 14 interviews with members of the project’s target groups:
  • 6 with people with intellectual disabilities
  • 8 with professionals (including professionals specialized in adapted sports)

​The interviews were centred around the types of physical activities practiced by people with intellectual disabilities, the feelings they evoke among this public as well as their benefits. Professionals also expressed their needs and the difficulties they encountered during the implementation of physical activities.

Answers collected during these interviews will be of great help to write a national report of the practice of physical activities by people with intellectual disabilities in France. This report will then be used, with national reports written by the other ActivAbility partners, to produce a transnational report that will help raise awareness on active ageing for people with intellectual disabilities through the practice of physical abilities. These interviews will also be helpful for the next steps of the project: the creation of an online manual and an e-learning course with digital solutions for active ageing of people with intellectual disabilities.
