"The Politecnico di Milano aspires to be an increasingly welcoming place, where each member of the community can feel their uniqueness and that of others respected and valued, and where inequalities and stereotypes are actively fought against. It also aims to contribute to creating a more inclusive society through scientific and technological innovation."
- 2023-2025 Strategic Plan of Politecnico di Milano
The Politecnico di Milano strongly believes in the value of inclusion, a key element of the strategic sustainability plan for the 2023-2025 triennium. Strengthening inclusion both within and outside our community is therefore a priority for us, and one of the ways we have chosen to do this is through theuniversal language of sport.
The Parasports For All event of the Politecnico di Milano returns for its second edition — a free, open-to-all morning dedicated to parasports and inclusion, taking place this year at Parco dei Gasometri!
An opportunity to discover and try different parasports alongside athletes and specialized associations, experiencing firsthand sport as a universal language that brings together people with and without disabilities.
An event is for everyone, kids included.
Free registration — online sign-up required. We look forward to seeing many of you there!

ROAD TO PARASPORTS FOR ALL 25
10 november | 5 - 8 PM | Giuriati Arena
The road to Parasports For All kicks off with an afternoon of sports activities at the Giuriati Sports Center (Via Pascal 6, Milan): our representative team and the SocialOsa Overlimits basketball team will train together, while our volleyball team will take part in a unified match with the athletes of Volley Agrate (both clubs include athletes with intellectual and relational disabilities).
It will be a wonderful moment of connection, exchange, and fun — where sport becomes a bridge to overcome differences and allows everyone to share emotions, effort, and experiences.
We look forward to seeing you there!
