From August 23 to 31, the Camino de Santiago will become the place of a extraordinary experience of inclusion. Sessanta persone prenderanno parte alla new edition of CamminAutismo, il progetto nato in Italia che unisce persone autistiche, famiglie, educatori e volontari in un'esperienza in cui ognuno diventa part active of the group.
It is not simply about inclusion. The objective is very concrete: walk insieme and show, tappa dopo tappa, which differenze non impediscono di dividere la stessa strada.
CamminAutism returns to the Cammino of Santiago with a new experience that will bring the group back Finisterre, one of the most symbolic symbols of the Jacobean universe.
Sessanta persone, a single path
The new experience will reunite circa 60 participants tra persone autistiche, familiari, educatori e volontari.
The philosophy of the project breaks with a very diffuse idea of inclusion: that second that any person should be simply accompanied or assisted.
Qui il concetto changes.
Ognuno walks. Ognuno participates. Ognuno contributes to the group.
This is the collective dimension to transform the Cammino into any part of an itinerary.
To diversify your days, you will adapt to the rhythm of others, confront stagnation and unexpected events, share pasti, chilometri, silence and difficoltà. Simple situations on the road can provide a powerful exercise of autonomy and coexistence.
An Italian project recently arrived in Santiago
CamminAutism does not arrive for the first time on its rotte jacobee.
The project is promoted by Torinese real estate Mulino Sambuy The negli anni scorsi have già carried by autistiche people on the Cammino of Santiago.
In 2022, ad esempio, tredici ragazzi italiani accompagnati da familiari e percorsero operators gli ultimi 100 chilometri verso Compostela. The Association of Municipalities of the Camino de Santiago remembers that we hope to be a born project to raise awareness of autism and demonstrate the possibility of a forever inclusive life.
CamminAutismo continues inoltre a essere riconosciuto come progetto di inclusione legato ai cammini: Italian documentation of the Servizio Civile Universale cites expressamente l'accompagnamento dei partecipanti during CamminAutismo e il sostegno alle persone che incontrano difficoltà longo il percorso.
Il Cammino as a laboratory of inclusion
The Camino di Santiago has a difficult characteristic to reproduce elsewhere.
Sul sentiero le etichette pardono progressively importanza.
This person is at the same speed and at the same time as the lens. C'è chi ha bisogno di fermarsi, chi incoraggia, chi porta qualcosa por un compagno e chi semplicemente apetta qualche minute perché nessuno rimanga indietro.
It is precisely in this everyday life that a project like CamminAutism acquires a particular meaning.
L'inclusione does not come across a community or a slogan.
If you walk on foot.
Da Santiago verse Finisterre
This adventure will continue in verse Finisterre, the treatment that many people present presents a sort of epilogue to the journey.
Raggiungere insieme the Galician coast dopo days on the road will also have a strong symbolic value.
At the end of this experience, the most important result will probably not be the number of kilometer percorsi.
Saranno le persone che li avranno percorsi insieme.
CamminAutism carries things on the way with an extremely simple mess: The inclusion works only when the device is released.
And on August 23, everyone will try it, passo dopo passo.
Good Way.
