The upcoming FIFA World Cup 2022 has been announced as the most accessible for persons with disabilities (PWDs) in the history of international FIFA tournaments,1 a fact that will have a positive impact on the built environment and the lives of local communities. Such a major sporting event may galvanise the population to undertake greater physical activity, a contribution against obesity and sedentarism in the country. The commitment to a healthier population led to the establishment of National Sports Day, the only public holiday beyond Qatar National Day. It is now acknowledged that all persons have the need and the right to engage in sport, and that PWDs are entitled to adaptations to access sport on equitable terms. Regrettably, there is no centralised data on the participation of PWDs in sport at the national level. The data gathered by different organisations makes comparisons and generalisations impossible. The purpose of this editorial is to offer a brief overview of PWDs’ engagement with sports in Qatar, including CWD, participation in elite parasport, and policy and infrastructure engagement. In the case of CWDs, early intervention will be the gateway to physical activity, and physical therapy should be individualised to develop the child at multiple levels. For instance, psychomotor therapy should combine emotional, physical and cognitive development; and play therapy may meet sensory, physical or behavioural challenges. The services listed in the Qatar Educational Directory2 show how physical therapies are integral to special education offered at high-quality state and independent schools, among which are the Al-Shafallah Center, Renad Academy and Al Noor Institute. CWDs attending inclusive (mainstream) education are offered adapted physical education. Despite efforts to provide physical education to CWDs, there are few options for recreational activity. PWDs are less likely to …

将残疾人纳入体育运动：第 2 部分——卡塔尔的最佳做法和政策建议

即将举行的 2022 年 FIFA 世界杯已被宣布为国际 FIFA 锦标赛历史上最适合残疾人士 (PWD) 参加的赛事1，这一事实将对建筑环境和当地社区的生活产生积极影响。这样一项大型体育赛事可能会激发人们进行更多的体育锻炼，从而有助于该国消除肥胖和久坐不动。对健康人口的承诺导致了国家体育日的设立，这是卡塔尔国庆日之后唯一的公共假期。现在人们承认，所有人都有参与体育运动的需要和权利，残疾人有权在公平的条件下进行调整以参与体育运动。遗憾的是，在国家层面上没有关于残疾人参与体育运动的集中数据。不同组织收集的数据无法进行比较和概括。这篇社论的目的是简要概述 PWDs 在卡塔尔参与体育运动，包括 CWD、参与精英 parasport 以及政策和基础设施参与。在 CWD 的情况下，早期干预将是进行身体活动的途径，物理治疗应该个体化以在多个层面上发展孩子。例如，精神运动疗法应结合情绪、身体和认知发展；游戏疗法可能会遇到感官、身体或行为方面的挑战。卡塔尔教育名录 2 中列出的服务显示了物理疗法如何成为优质公立学校和私立学校提供的特殊教育不可或缺的一部分，其中包括 Al-Shafallah 中心、Renad 学院和 Al Noor 研究所。参加包容性（主流）教育的 CWD 可获得适应性体育教育。尽管努力为 CWDs 提供体育教育，但娱乐活动的选择很少。残疾人不太可能……
