Paralympic participants to be equal

Olympic planners say all athletes will get same level of support for 2022

To ensure the equal success of the 2022 Olympic and Paralympic Games, Beijing has pledged to provide disabled athletes with the same support and access to winter sports that other athletes enjoy and to promote inclusiveness.

With less than five years until the 2022 Winter Games, the Beijing Olympic Organizing Committee has emphasized integration of the parasports gala and winter sports promotions among disabled people throughout the preparatory process. That was highlighted in a progress report delivered at the International Paralympic Committee General Assembly in Abu Dhabi.
