The role of inclusive physical education and “green zones” in the support system for children with hearing impairments in conditions of combined stress

Abstract

The period 2015–2025 was a time of fundamental transformation of the system of physical education of children with hearing impairments, caused by a paradigm shift from correctional and pedagogical to rehabilitation and security. The impact of global crisis factors — the COVID-19 pandemic and long-term military and environmental stress — has actualized the search for new strategies of social protection and psychological support for this vulnerable category of the younger generation. The purpose of the study is the scientific substantiation of the conceptual transformation of the system of physical education of children with hearing impairments in conditions of long-term combined stress. Methods of research: theoretical analysis and systematization of scientific data, systemic analysis, hermeneutic analysis of the regulatory and legal framework. Results of research. Three stages of development of scientific knowledge of the problem are identified: basic (stabilization), modified (anti-crisis/distance) and globally transformed (rehabilitation). It was established that the current stage (2022–2025) is characterized by a critical impact of neurosensory factors (vibration load) and anthropogenic-military threats on the process of physical education of children with hearing impairments. The feasibility of implementing a rehabilitation-resilience model based on the use of health and recreational activities in the natural environment ("green zones") and the application of a two-track inclusion model for social reintegration is substantiated. Conclusions. It is proven that in the conditions of modern challenges, adaptive sports are transformed into a strategic means of psychological rehabilitation, where a healthy lifestyle acts as a separate, full-fledged component of the support system for children with hearing impairments.
