Abstract

This work aims to make a contribution on how social sciences can be of support and help for people with disabilities. Social sciences can play a significant role in supporting and helping people with disabilities by identifying the environmental and social barriers that make disabilities most visible and challenging for individuals, removing them and creating more inclusive and accessible environments for them. Social sciences can also empower people with disabilities by giving them a voice and helping them build confidence and social capital. In fact, the world of physical activity, sport, disability and the path towards conquest of resilient peculiarities must merge in the awareness that they guarantee a better quality of life for disabled people is possible beyond barriers cultural, social and architectural.
