Year: 2025
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: This article examines the critical role of physical education and adapted physical activity programs in promoting social integration of students with disabilities (SWDs) within the inclusive higher education system in Uzbekistan. The article argues that well-designed and implemented physical activity initiatives can significantly improve SWDs’ social integration, self-esteem, and overall well-being, contributing to a more equitable and inclusive learning environment. The article reviews the current state of inclusive education in Uzbek universities, as well as the existing opportunities and challenges associated with SWDs’ participation in physical education classes. It then proposes practical strategies for developing and implementing effective adapted physical activity programs that promote social integration and enable people with disabilities to fully participate in university life.
