BEWATER

Transdisciplinary project based on
the construction of experiences in the water
through an educational and inclusive approach
aimed at students with intellectual disabilities.

The BEWATER program is aimed at children and adolescents with intellectual disabilities. It is based on aquatic interventions not only in the health field but also in other areas such as recreational, educational, sporting and emotional, among others, depending on the interests of the individual. 

Aquatic intervention is beneficial as it allows the individual with disabilities to interact and participate in their own activities providing them with the same opportunities and rights as their peers along, with opportunities for learning. 

To include aquatic activity in the curriculum for students allows us to complement their other educational and therapeutic interventions for achieving the specific objectives throughout the school year. 

The contribution of different professional offers a more real and more holistic perspective and is more inclusive, thus transdisciplinary work has become a mandatory requirement for intervention in the BEWATER methodology.
