The workshop challenges students to create a video storytelling concept that links the themes of disability and energy in an innovative and impactful way, developing a message that celebrates strength, inclusion, and sustainability. Students will work on designing an effective narrative format, capable of conveying emotion, inspiration, and shared values. Students will work on a storytelling that combines the story of Bebe Vio with the concepts of energy and inclusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beatrice Maria Vio<\/strong>, born in Venice on March 4, 1997.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the age of five she began to practice fencing, a sport that soon turned into a<\/p>\n\n\n\n

great passion. After the illness that hits her in 2008, when she was 11 years old,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and which caused the amputation of both legs and hands, with the help of her<\/p>\n\n\n\n

family and orthopedic technicians, Bebe manages to return to the fencing platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the early months of 2010, she was able to make the first tests of wheelchair<\/p>\n\n\n\n

fencing, becoming the first and only, still today, athlete in the world fencing without<\/p>\n\n\n\n

arms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She was torchbearer at the Paralympics of London 2012 carrying the paralympic<\/p>\n\n\n\n

torch on the day of the opening of the Games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2024 she participated in the opening ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympics and,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

subsequently, she was also the torch bearer at the opening ceremony of the Paris<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paralympics, the only one in the world to have taken part in the two opening<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ceremonies in the same edition of these events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since 2011 she has won every year the Italian championships and since 2014 has<\/p>\n\n\n\n

won all the international competitions to which she participated, in fact since then<\/p>\n\n\n\n

she is first in the world ranking. In individual competitions she collected 3 individual<\/p>\n\n\n\n

gold medals at the European Championships (2014, 2016 and 2018) and 4<\/p>\n\n\n\n

individual gold medals at the World Championships (2015, 2017, 2019 and 2023).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the Paralympic Games she won the gold medal at Rio 2016 and Tokyo 2020 and<\/p>\n\n\n\n

the bronze medal at Paris 2024, as well as several other medals in all the<\/p>\n\n\n\n

international team competitions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She was Global Ambassador of the Paralympic Games of Paris 2024 and will have<\/p>\n\n\n\n

the same role at Milano Cortina 2026 as well as being the global testimonial of<\/p>\n\n\n\n

some international brands such as Toyota, Nike, Sorgenia, Omega, Dior, L\u2019Oreal<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and Technogym.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She has published two books with eloquent titles: “They gave me a dream”, in<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2015, and “If it seems impossible then it can be done”, in 2017, both of them best<\/p>\n\n\n\n

sellers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the last years she has been on covers of Italian and international magazines and<\/p>\n\n\n\n

took part in many television and radio broadcast. In 2017, she leads on Rai 1 the Tv<\/p>\n\n\n\n

program “La vita \u00e8 una figata” (Life is cool), in 10 episodes, while in 2018 she also<\/p>\n\n\n\n

got in touch with the cinema in one the most important movie of the year, “The<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Incredibles 2″ of Disney-Pixar, dubbing in Italian a new heroine, Vojd. But from that<\/p>\n\n\n\n

moment on she preferred to reduce her media appearances as much as possible to<\/p>\n\n\n\n

avoid possible overexposure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After her illness, together with her parents 15 years ago she founded art4sport<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Onlus, a no-profit association that aims to help amputee children and young people<\/p>\n\n\n\n

to enjoy the beauty of life and help them integrate into society through sports. Its<\/p>\n\n\n\n

mission is also to promote inclusion through sport with different projects and international events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most important are the WEmbrace movement, based on three annual events,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and the Bebe Vio Academy, an inclusive multi sport academy where kids with disability play sports together with kids without disability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her dream? in a not too distant future, you will be able to walk into any gym and see Olympic and Paralympic athletes training together, next to each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
