GIAff4ID Project: what is it about?
The project intends to develop games (based on game-based learning approach) on various themes connected to sexual education in order to ensure that YPWID (Young People With Intellectual Disabilities- YPWID) are equipped with the same sexual education as their peers, because it allows integration in society and independence over this part of their life.
GIAff4ID project is expected to provide the following long-term outcomes:
– Dismantling the barrier around sexual education for YPWID.
– Shifting the discourse around sexual education for YPWID from negative to positive actions that allow the enjoyment of Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights.
– Creating inclusive and adaptable materials for youth workers that want to engage them on the subject.
– Promote the integration of persons with disabilities in society to ensure their participation in community life.
Project results:
- Produce a Guidance Toolkit for youth workers based on Interviews with YPWID;
- Create a Games’ Compendium with Instructional Materials on how to implement them based on collection of Good Practices and games design.
