The Real Madrid Foundation holds its second Inclusive Week of the season
On the occasion of World Hearing Day, the training sessions included awareness activities.
The Real Madrid Foundation has celebrated the second Inclusive Week of the season coinciding with World Hearing Day, commemorated every March 3rd, thus reaffirming its commitment to bringing sports closer to everyone and raising awareness through education in values.
Throughout the week, all the Foundation's projects (football and basketball social sports schools, programs in shelters, penitentiary centers, adapted schools for people with intellectual disabilities, sensory schools, and wheelchair basketball) conducted special training sessions during their usual activities, focusing on hearing disabilities and sign language as a key communication tool.
One of the most notable aspects of this edition has been the consolidation of the sensory schools Ponce de León and Gaudem, created last season and now an established part of the Foundation's educational offerings.
Raising awareness of hearing disabilities
These activities encourage participants to share dynamics, values, and experiences. The sessions allowed for raising awareness of the reality faced by people with hearing disabilities and fostering teamwork through sports practice, key elements for creating inclusive environments both on and off the court. With initiatives like this, the Real Madrid Foundation continues to promote its mission of making sports accessible to all, demonstrating that awareness and education in values are fundamental pillars for building more respectful and participatory communities. Thanks to collaboration with Endesa, GSK, Fundación Sanitas, HSBC, Fundación Cajastur, Las Colinas Country Club Resort, El Corte Inglés, UPS, Fundación ConecTEA, and Fundación Laureus, the Real Madrid Foundation develops 34 projects for over 600 people with disabilities.
