IPC Administration Manual PARALYMPIC ADMINISTRATION MANUAL • PARALYMPIC MOVEMENT POWERED BY The IPC’s mission is to develop Paralympic Sport around the world at all levels, and ensure the means necessary to support future growth of the Paralympic Movement. Behind this stated objective, constant hard work is being conducted on the ground – men and women through their love of sport and devotion to the Paralympic Movement use resources available to bring Paralympic Sport to life across the five continents. Without them, ParalympicS port would simply not exist. This commitment ultimately drives the continual evolution of National Paralympic Committees (NPC) and the growing events calendar. The popularity and development of Paralympic Sport now more than ever depends on the ability of our NPCs to develop and deliver quality training and competition opportunities for their athletes. For this reason, the IPC is providing managers and administrators the means which allow them to accomplish their work in the best manner possible. This Paralympic Administration Manual is a further demonstration of the IPC’s commitment in providing the Paralympic Movement with the resources needed to accomplish their goals. You will find it an extremely useful tool in developing Paralympic Sport in your region and country. This publication was made possible through funding from the German Ministry of the Interior, and adds to a wide range of programmes developed in partnership with the IPC Academy. It will contribute to raising the general quality of NPCs and Paralympic events, and will assist the growth of Paralympic Sport at all levels. On behalf of the IPC, I would like to thank all of the NPCs and their commitment to Paralympic Sport. I wish them the utmost success!

    5th Asian Law Institute Conference National University of Singapore, May 22 and 23, 2008 377 - and the unnatural afterlife of British colonialism Professor Douglas Sanders Chulalongkorn University, Mahidol University sanders_gwb @ yahoo.ca, May 6, 2008 Article 377 of the Indian Penal Code of 1860 made “carnal intercourse against the order of nature” an offence. This provision, or something very close to it, is presently in force in all former British colonies in Asia with the exception of Hong Kong. Even the article number, 377, is repeated in the current laws in force in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Singapore, Malaysia and Brunei - as if it were a special brand name, all of its own. Sri Lanka, Seychelles and Papua New Guinea have the key wording from article 377, but different section numbers. Parallel wording appears in the criminal laws of many of the former colonies in Africa. Surprisingly, viewing the matter from Asia, the 377 wording was never part of the criminal law in Britain. 377 is an amazingly successful law – if we judge it by its geographical spread and its longevity. Soon it will be 150 years old. How was it formulated? How did it come to apply in Asia? What is its role today? 2 First, we have to look back to the reign of Henry VIII and the break of the English church from Rome. I BACK TO BUGGERY British criminal laws covering homosexual acts began in 1534. Legislation in the reign of Henry VIII, prohibited …the detestable and abominable Vice of Buggery committed with mankind or beast.

  • Citation by the Provincial Government of South Sumatera
    CITATION BY THE PROVINCIAL GOVERNMENT OF SOUTH SUMATERA South Sumatera Province, with Palembang as the capital city, needs an effective development strategy to boost its ecenomic growth especially in terms of driving investments. Aside from the conservative approach which derives from the Long Term and Middle Term National Development Plan that focusing on pro poor – pro job – pro growth strategy, the Provincial Government of South Sumatera sets a more detailed and comprehensive development strategy in which sports is used as its foundation. The main strategy is to develop an integrated sports complex which has all the necessary components for hosting international multi sports events; such as competition venues, non-competition venues (athletes’ village with dining hall and sports science center), equipped with supporting infrastructures (water supply, solid waste treatment facility, and green open spaces). Eventually, the infrastructure needed will not only be built on the sports complex, but also in Palembang greater area, mostly regarding the transportation system that will support access for human and logistic to the sports complex. These infrastructures construction that were believed to be the engine to enhance economic growth in terms of driving investments. The development that later known as Jakabaring Sport City (JSC) stands on a 360 Ha of Provincial Government estate in which it not only plays the role as sports, education, and entertainment complex, but also as the water catchment area for Jakabaring district in Palembang with its artificial lake of 48 Ha. The massive development of the complex started on September 2011 after South Sumatera has been appointed as the host for the 26th South East Asian (SEA) Games 2011 together with Jakarta, the capital of the Republic of Indonesia.

  • IPC, Adenauerallee 212-214, D-53113 Bonn
    ABOUT THE IPC The International Paralympic Committee (IPC) is the global governing body of the Paralympic Movement. The IPC organizes the Summer and Winter Paralympic Games and serves as the International Federation for nine sports, for which it supervises and co-ordinates the World Championships and other major competitions. The IPC is committed to enabling Paralympic athletes to achieve sporting excellence and to developing sport opportunities for all persons with a disability from the beginner to elite level. In addition, the IPC aims to promote the Paralympic values, which include courage, determination, inspiration and equality. Founded on 22 September 1989, the IPC is an international non-profit organization formed and run by 170 National Paralympic Committees (NPCs) from five regions and four disability specific international sports federations (IOSDs). The IPC headquarters and its management team are located in Bonn, Germany. The organization has a democratic constitution and structure, made up of elected representatives. The four IOSDs are: • CPISRA: Cerebral Palsy International Sport and Recreation Association • IBSA: International Blind Sports Federation • INAS-FID: International Sports Federation for Persons with Intellectual Disability • IWAS: International Wheelchair and Amputee Sports Federation Whereas other international sports organizations for athletes with a disability are either limited to one disability group or to one specific sport, the IPC as an umbrella organization represents several sports and disabilities. The first Paralympic Games were held in Rome, Italy, in 1960, bringing a number of sports and disability groups together into one event. The first Paralympic Winter Games were subsequently held in Örnsköldsvik, Sweden, in 1976. The Paralympics grew quickly and became an important international sporting event.

  • CHAPTER-4 Physical Education and Sports for CWSN
    CHAPTER-4 Physical Education and Sports for CWSN (Children with Special Needs) 4.1 AIMS & OBJECTIVES OF ADAPTED PHYSICAL EDUCATION Adapted Physical Education is a science of developing, implementing, and monitoring a designed physical education instructional programme for an individual with a disability, based on a comprehensive assessment, to give the learner the skills necessary for a lifetime of rich recreation, leisure and sport experiences to increase physical fitness and wellness. Adapted physical education is physical education that is individualized and specially designed to address the needs of students with disabilities who require adaptations or modifications to be physically active, participate safely, and make progress toward the standards for Health, Safety, and Physical Education. In simple words, we can say the physical education program designed for individuals with disabilities is called adapted physical education. The program is adapted to meet the needs of each student through modifications and accommodations. According to Auxter, D., Pyfer, J. & Huettig, C. “ Adapted physical education is the art and science of developing and implementing a carefully designed physical education instructional program for an individual with a disability, based on a comprehensive assessment, to give the individual the skills necessary for a lifetime of rich leisure, recreation, and sport experiences”. Adapted physical education is used to emphasise the importance of understanding the scientific bases of human development as it bring into relations to teaching appropriate concepts and practices in the adapted physical education program which will serve to maximize the quality of life among individuals with disabilities. Adapted physical education is clear that practices that influencing exercise, fitness, diet and nutritional status can significantly impact the quality and duration of life of an individuals with disabilities.

Disability in Different Countries Writing Process The assignment was to write anything under the theme of the class which is “Disability.” I decided to write about disability itself. I picked that subject because I am from different country, Saudi Arabia. I felt like I have many things to talk about. First I looked online and I found a very good resource that talks about disability. I tried to focus more on how different cultures may affect how disabled people feel about themselves and how other people view them. We had the chance to revise this assignment. So I put my final ouchest on it and I submitted it to my professor. On the first draft I got 92. On the second and final revision I got 98. I really like this course and the theme.
