Trail Orienteering (IOFA)
Inclusive Trail Orienteering is not just a sport.
It's a pathway to inclusion, empowerment, and equal participation for everyone.
IOFA is a European project co-funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union. Its mission is to make Trail Orienteering more accessible and inclusive, with a particular focus on people with disabilities and those working in the fields of sport, education and community engagement.
Understanding the vision behind IOFA
Inclusive Orienteering for All (IOFA) is a European project designed to make Trail Orienteering more accessible, inclusive and impactful. By combining sport, education and social inclusion, IOFA provides practical tools and approaches that empower coaches, educators and organisations to create meaningful opportunities for everyone.Activities
From ideas to real experiences across Europe
Throughout the project, IOFA partners organised activities, trainings and events in different countries, actively involving people with disabilities and testing inclusive Trail-O approaches in real-life contexts. These experiences helped shape and validate the tools and resources developed within the project.
