The Challenge
From invisible to empowered
An estimated 200 million people
worldwide have intellectual
disabilities.
People
with intellectual disabilities
are among the most neglected and
vulnerable groups in the world.
In many places, they have limited
access to education and
healthcare, and less opportunity
for employment. Individuals with
intellectual disabilities are
often marginalized or ignored,
and are more likely to be victims
of violence and abuse than the
general population.
In the face of these challenges,
Special Olympics has created a
global platform through sports to
educate and communicate the
dignity and value of people with
intellectual disabilities,
and to give them
opportunities to showcase their
abilities and talents.
