People with behavioral disorder can comfortably follow World Cup 2022
When the first football stadium for the 2022 World Cup is opened, during the Emir Cup final, a space will also be revealed through which people with cognitive behavioral disorders will experience the football matches in a whole new way.
The organization of the Qatar tournament has joined forces with the Ontario Center for Special Education (OCSE) to develop the room. In this room, football fans with a disability can still experience the game in a comfortable way. Cognitive skills or abilities have to do with the degree to which you are able to absorb and process knowledge and information.
The space is decorated in the Khalifa International Stadium and contains, for example, soundproofing, soft furniture, mood lighting, relaxed music and brightly colored toys and equipment. These features are designed to manage the fear of people so that they can follow the game in a quiet environment.
" An environment was needed that could contribute to the experience of football by people with a disability. constraint, " said Mariam Al Rashdi, founder of the OCSE. " This room was never a requirement of FIFA, but Qatar felt it was necessary for people with cognitive behavioral disorders to be able to follow the games of the 2022 World Cup. "
With this, the organization in Qatar has again achieved a goal in offering exclusive facilities. " Our ambition is to ensure that football can be followed by everyone, regardless of their options. Football is more popular than ever in the host country and all fans must be able to watch their favorite team play. In addition, the opportunity to taste the atmosphere and contribute to it should be the same for everyone. "
The organization of the 2022 World Cup is very busy developing facilities for people with disabilities. This shows once again how Qatar strives to be accessible to everyone in every sector. It is their intention that such a space for people with behavioral disorders becomes just as common in football stadiums as, for example, a toilet or eating places.
