The subject of Inclusive Physical Education at the University of Barcelona is a pioneer in training future teachers in the field of sports inclusion. This 3rd Congress on Physical Education and Inclusive Sport contributed to raising awareness within the educational community about the need to create inclusive spaces, foster social debate, and promote good practices in physical activity, physical education, and sports. Events like this aim to reduce inequalities, promote healthy living, support inclusive and quality education, and foster gender equality.
