Inclusive Readathon

Cortina d'Ampezzo is preparing to host an event that goes beyond reading: a shared experience, inclusion and active participation.

The third appointment of the Inclusive Reading Marathon returns, a project promoted by the International Center for the Spoken Book “A. Sernagiotto” in Feltre, an organization committed for years to spreading accessible culture and enhancing reading as a tool for integration.

The initiative was born with the aim of creating a bridge between sports and culture, inspired by the values of solidarity, friendship, and participation.

The protagonists of the event will be young people from Belluno with various abilities, belonging to the associations ASSI, AIPD, and the Italian Union of the Blind and Visually Impaired, along with readers from the Spoken Book, artists, and enthusiasts. Their voices will bring to life a choral narrative dedicated to the 1956 Olympics, a symbol of memory, identity, and sportsmanship.

The marathon is not just a reading, but a true moment of gathering: an opportunity where words become bridges between people, breaking down barriers and celebrating every uniqueness.
Reading aloud, in fact, is recognized as a powerful tool for connection: it promotes social inclusion, stimulates listening, and strengthens community spirit, creating a dialogue between the reader and the listener.

Accompanying the readings will be the musical performances of the students from the “F. Sandi” Music School in Feltre, which will enrich the atmosphere with an intertwining of sounds and emotions, making the experience even more immersive.
