Introduction: Globally, ensuring social inclusion for individuals with disabilities requires a comprehensive strategy that involves active cooperation among health, social welfare, rural and urban development, and legal fields. This approach highlights the significance of community social participation. Despite the recognized importance of social engagement, there is limited information available about the social participation of this demographic and the factors that influence it. Consequently, the objective of this scoping review is to examine the existing literature on social participation and its determinants specifically for individuals with locomotor disabilities. It also aims to identify any gaps in the current research, indicating where additional studies are needed to enhance support quality and social involvement for this population. Methods: This scoping review will follow the methodological framework for scoping reviews outlined by Arksey & O’Malley and Levac. The study will involve searching three electronic databases: MEDLINE, SPORTD iscus, and grey literature. The scope of the search will encompass studies published in English from the establishment of each database up to the current date. The reference lists of all included articles will be manually examined for additional findings. Two independent reviewers will assess the titles and abstracts to determine eligibility based on the established criteria. Data will be extracted and displayed both in tabular format and through a narrative summary that corresponds with the objectives of the review. Ethics and dissemination: The results of this scoping review are expected to be published in peer-reviewed journals as well as in easy-to-understand formats to reach a broader audience. No ethical approval will be necessary for this scoping review. Conclusion: The study will pinpoint gaps in the literature, generating insights that will guide future research and inform policy decisions. The results of this study will assist in identifying priority areas for individuals with locomotor disabilities.
