In a unique initiative, young people from urban communities and individuals with disabilities came together in various regions of France to engage in sports workshops. The program took place in seven locations, including two French overseas departments and five mainland cities, and was organized by over 200 Orange volunteer employees, partnered with amateur football and rugby clubs, as well as disabled sports associations.
The goal of the initiative was to create a platform where diversity is celebrated and sports serve as a means of fostering unity and solidarity among participants. During each workshop, participants had the opportunity to engage in different sports activities that promoted physical activity, teamwork, and social interaction.
The emphasis was on creating a supportive and inclusive environment where all individuals, regardless of background or ability, could come together to enjoy the benefits of sports. Through this initiative, young people had the chance to learn new skills, build confidence, and form bonds with others in their communities. The workshops also aimed to raise awareness about the importance of inclusivity in sports and highlight the value of diversity in enhancing the overall experience for all participants. By bringing together individuals from different backgrounds and abilities, the initiative demonstrated the power of sports in breaking down barriers and fostering a sense of belonging and togetherness.
