Analysis of the functional capacity of people with disabilities.

Continuation of the project ¡Move on, you can do it! Carried out in collaboration with the Society, Sport and Physical Exercise Research Group (GIKAFIT), within the Department of Physical Education and Sport of the UPV-EHU and financed under the UPV-EHU’s call for University-business-society 2023 projects.

Move on 2.0, which will last for two years, is based on the premise that in many contexts of physical activity practice, the effective inclusion of people with disabilities in that specific area is unknown. Therefore, the project aims to validate and check the reliability of the functional capacity of people with disabilities in physical activity and sport in the Basque Autonomous Community by measuring their motor skills and physical condition. The implementation of this project will make it possible to find out the functional capacity of people with disabilities, according to gender, age, socio-economic situation or other contextual factors, determining whether this functional capacity is a relevant factor in the inclusion in the practice of physical activity and sport.
