At the same time, there was an exchange of views on the work done to involve people with intellectual disabilities in sports, existing cooperation mechanisms and priority areas for the coming period.
The parties emphasized the importance of developing an inclusive sports environment, more broadly involving participants in the training process, and strengthening sustainable support mechanisms in this area. In addition, it was noted that holding the trainings on the eve of World Autism Awareness Day has a special meaning and significance.
