Inclusive Festival “Mölkky 4 All”

An inclusive celebration of friendship, collaboration, and inclusion on Tinos.

From October 16th to 19th, 2025, the “Inclusive Mölkky 4 All” festival was successfully held on the island of Tinos.
The event was organized by the Panhellenic Association of Friends of Children with Disabilities “SOS KIDS LAMPSE,” the Hellenic Powerlifting Federation (HPA), and the Shine Sports Club, in collaboration with the Parents and Guardians Association of Tinos Primary School No. 3, under the auspices of the International Inclusive Committee.

Students from grades 4, 5, and 6 of Tinos Primary School No. 3 had the opportunity to play, collaborate, and have fun with people with intellectual disabilities in an environment filled with joy, acceptance, and mutual respect. Everyone became one team, regardless of labels and differences, sharing experiences, smiling, and creating unforgettable friendships.

The initiative’s main goal was to create an environment where everyone, regardless of their abilities, felt like an active and equal member of the group. The festival promoted the idea that diversity is strength, collaboration bridges differences, and inclusivity can become a way of life. The Finnish game Mölkky, with its simple, participatory rules, proved ideal for fostering teamwork, communication, and the joy of non-competitive play.

The atmosphere was emotional and festive: children and people with disabilities played, collaborated, and supported each other, showing that when we’re all together, no one is left behind.

Long-awaited news for Russian Paralympic sport! 🇷🇺
The International Paralympic Committee has made a historic decision: Russian Paralympic athletes have been fully reinstated!
What does this mean:
✅ Competing under the Russian flag
✅ Playing the national anthem upon victories
✅ Uniforms with national symbols
✅ Participation in all tournaments under the auspices of the IPC
This applies not only to the Paralympic Games, but also to international competitions in swimming, powerlifting, sledge hockey, and shooting.
Years of anticipation and hard work have led to justice being restored. Russian Paralympians have proven their commitment to clean sport and Olympic values.
This is a victory for the entire Russian Paralympic movement—athletes, coaches, federations, and fans. New starts and new victories lie ahead!

The International Inclusive Committee congratulates the Russian Paralympic Committee

The International Inclusive Committee proudly continues its charitable mission to develop and popularize adaptive and inclusive sports in Russia and around the world!

We believe that sports are a powerful force that unites people and opens up unlimited opportunities for everyone.

That is why we continue a large-scale charitable project to equip regions of the Russian Federation with modern inclusive sports grounds and unique complexes for passing adaptive GTO standards.

In November, such a wonderful inclusive site will appear in the city of Grozny. Chechen Republic. It will have more than 25 different exercise machines and other sports equipment.

Our project in the capital of the Chechen Republic is taking on a new, even deeper meaning. An entire park area will be created next to the modern inclusive site.

In this park, where majestic red and green poplars, benches and a large flower bed will be planted, in the park you can not only play sports, but also walk with children and sit in the shade of beautiful trees.

Following the cancellation of the Games in Jakarta, Indonesia, the World Abilitysport Games 2025 will be held from 17 to 24 November 2025 in Nakhongratchasima, Thailand. The programme will include competitions in para-athletics, para-fencing and para-shooting.

The inclusion of para-athletics in the programme of the Games will give athletes the opportunity to compete in two World Para-Athletic sanctioned events at once, as the World Abilitysport Games (21-23 November) and then the 3rd Nakhongratchasima International Para-Athletic Tournament (24-26 November).

The 80th Anniversary Stadium will host the Para-shooting Grand Prix, which will also include international classification events. World Para-fencing will be held in the Congress Centre of the complex.

World Abilitysport President Rudi Van den Abbeele said: “We are delighted to be returning to Nakongratchasima, a city that holds wonderful memories of successful competitions and well-deserved medals for our members and their athletes.” Registration for the Games will open on 26 August and close on 7 October.

Our ward, the ANO “Center for Adaptation and Physical Development of Children with Disabilities.” With the support of the Presidential Grants Fund, we are significantly expanding the list of developmental activities for children with disabilities. This isn’t just news—it’s a true revolution in the lives of our special children!
From football to comprehensive development: what’s new in store for children?
Previously, our young athletes enjoyed playing football, which helped them strengthen their bodies, minds, and team spirit. And now the range of opportunities has become even richer and more diverse! Children can choose what they enjoy and truly unlock their potential:
Taekwondo is a powerful sport for developing coordination, discipline, and self-confidence. Every kick is a step toward overcoming barriers!
Gymnastics is graceful exercises that improve flexibility, balance, and posture, giving them the joy of movement in a safe and accommodating environment. Dance is a rhythmic activity where every child becomes the star of the stage, expressing emotions through movement and receiving a boost of positivity.
Drawing is a creative flight of fancy on canvas, helping develop fine motor skills, imagination, and emotional intelligence.
Pottery is working with clay, which teaches patience, develops tactile sensations, and allows you to create unique masterpieces with your hands.
These activities are specifically adapted to the needs of children with disabilities: small groups, individualized attention, experienced trainers and therapists. We believe that sports and creativity are the key to harmonious development, where every child feels like a hero!

The ANO “Center for Adaptation and Physical Development of Children with Disabilities” thanks the Presidential Grants Fund and the International Inclusive Committee for their trust and support. Together, we make the world a more accessible and brighter place for every child!

The International Inclusive Committee proudly continues its charitable mission to develop and popularize adaptive and inclusive sports in Russia and around the world!

We believe that sports are a powerful force that unites people and opens up unlimited opportunities for everyone.

That is why we have launched a large-scale charitable project to equip regions of the Russian Federation with modern inclusive sports grounds and unique complexes for passing adaptive GTO standards.

In August, the first sites will appear in Lugansk (LPR) and Grozny (Chechen Republic). But we are not stopping there! Following them, modern sports complexes will be installed and transferred to Volgograd, St. Petersburg, the Republic of Buryatia and many other corners of our vast country.

Our project in the capital of the Chechen Republic is acquiring a new, even deeper meaning. An entire park zone will be created next to the modern inclusive site – not just a place for relaxation, but a tribute to eternal memory and respect.
In this park, where majestic red-leaved maples will be planted, the memory of the heroes of the Chechen Republic who fought for Russia will be perpetuated.

Thus, the strength of the spirit of the past and the desire for new victories in the future will meet on one land. This will be a place where the memory of the exploits of ancestors inspires the younger generation to accomplishments, and nature gives harmony and peace.

Each such site is not just a sports facility. It is a place of power, a symbol of equality, a territory of new victories and proof that there are no barriers for the strength of spirit.

Joining forces for a great goal: the launch of the charity auction “Impulse”!

The International Inclusive Committee officially announces the launch of the largest charity auction, organized in partnership with outstanding Russian and international athletes and leading football clubs. Legends stood shoulder to shoulder with us – leading Russian and international athletes, famous football clubs, those whose names thunder in stadiums around the world. All of them provided various lots with their autograph.

Our mission is to provide equal opportunities for everyone who sees sport as their life and calling. The goal of this auction is to raise funds to organize a trip to the III International Festival of Adaptive Sports “Impulse” for athletes from orphanages and boarding schools for people with disabilities.
In hundreds of orphanages and boarding schools across the country, there are children with disabilities whose hearts beat to the rhythm of sports. They train with incredible, breathtaking persistence. Their eyes glow with the same unquenchable passion for victory as professional stars. They know the value of every training session, every small victory over themselves.
