Co-creation Meetings

Co-creation Meetings

On 18-19 of July we organized a Co-creation online session within the Judo4All project where every partner organization worked on their own plans for the next 10 months of working.

The working plans included: recruiting plan, timetable for training plans of inclusive judo, inclusive judo methodology, toolkit content dissemination plan and further implementation of the judo activities for our upcoming events, where the main component will be inclusion with people with intellectual disabilities in judo.

The inclusive judo methodology consists of judo methods adapted for people with disabilities and all these methods will be part of the toolkit that afterwards will be spread among the partners and other organizations interested in inclusive sports.
With this we believe we will make the sports more accessible for everyone.

Stay tuned soon we will have open calls for recruiting participants in all partner countries!
