      WASHINGTON, 22 de junio de 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Dentro de un año, los Special Olympics World Winter Games 2022  comenzarán en Kazán, Rusia. Más de 2.000 atletas de Special Olympics de más de 100 países competirán en siete deportes, y contarán con el apoyo de 3.000 voluntarios.

      Special Olympics World Winter Games Kazan 2022 mostrará el poder de un mundo de inclusión, igualdad, bondad y alegría. Los Juegos tienen como objetivo crear comunidades inclusivas mediante la transformación de actitudes sobre las personas con discapacidad intelectual en Rusia y en todo el mundo.

      Mary Davis, consejera delegada de Special Olympics, dijo: "Special Olympics se enorgullece de ser sede de los World Winter Games 2022 en Kazán, Rusia. Kazán se ha establecido como una ciudad capaz de albergar los mejores eventos deportivos internacionales, y estoy segura de que los World Winter Games 2022 dejarán un legado duradero de inclusión en Rusia y mostrarán al mundo que los deportes son un catalizador para la inclusión y la paz."

      Con 130.000 atletas, Special Olympics Russia acoge 5.000 eventos deportivos para personas con discapacidad intelectual en un año típico. Los World Winter Games en Kazán ayudarán a Special Olympics Russia a crear inclusión social para los tres millones de personas con discapacidad intelectual en el país.

      Olga Slutsker, presidenta de Special Olympics Russia dijo, "World Winter Games Kazan creará un ambiente de alegría y bondad, derribando barreras y convenciones. Cuando se trata de la inclusión para las personas con discapacidad intelectual, vemos que somos más parecidos que diferentes. Los deportes tienen el poder de unir a la gente, y los World Winter Games Kazan 2022 construirán una cultura inclusiva en Rusia y en todo el mundo." 

      Kazán, considerada la capital deportiva de Rusia, tiene un profundo patrimonio deportivo y las instalaciones deportivas, la infraestructura y la base de voluntarios establecida de la ciudad han acogido muchas competiciones deportivas de clase mundial. Los World Winter Games Kazan 2022 marcarán la primera vez que Special Olympics trae una competición global a Rusia.

      Los atletas de Special Olympics y socios unificados tendrán la oportunidad de competir en siete deportes: esquí alpino, snowboard, floorball, esquí de fondo, patinaje artístico, patinaje de velocidad de pista corta y raquetas de nieve.

      El impacto de todos los Special Olympics World Games es siempre duradero. Los Juegos recientes han dejado legados de cambios en las políticas, inversiones financieras y cambios medibles en las actitudes.

      Además de las competiciones deportivas, los Special Olympics World Winter Games 2022 se centrarán en ampliar la programación de la organización en salud, educación y liderazgo para los atletas..
