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.

FOURTEENTH CONGRESS of the REPUBLIC of the PHILIPPINES First Regular Session
ZENATE FlCE OF “tttr ~~~~~~~~ FOURTEENTH CONGRESS OF THE REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES First Regular Session SENATE d Introduced by Senator Manuel “Lito” M. Lapid EXPLANATORY NOTE Sports Competition involving differently abled athletes began in the years following World War II when Sir Ludwig Guttman, a world pioneer in the rehabilitation of people with spinal injuries, recognized the value of sports as a means of rehabilitation. From then on, sports for the disabled evolved into competitive level when the first wheelchair games were held simultaneously with the 1948 Olympic games in London. Having shown to the world that competitive sports were not under the exclusive domain of the physically fit, various sports competitions for the disabled emerged and became a tradition internationally. The first Stoke Mandeville Games which subsequently developed into an international event contributed to the formation of the Paralympic movement known as the International Paralympic Committee. This committee, which is the counterpart of the International Olympic Committee which organized the World Olympics, serves as the governing body of all Regional or Continental Sports competitions for the disabled such as the Asean Para Games, FESPIC Games, and the Paralympics. The country’s local association known as the Philippine Sports Association for the Differently Abled (PHILSPADA), has been actively sending its own sporting delegations in all these international sporting events in order to represent the Philippines. The ASEAN’ Para Games is the equivalent of the SEA Games. The ASEAN Para Games is a biennial competition for athletes with a disability in the ASEAN region. The games are hosted by the same country where the SEA Games take place.

The History of Sports for Individuals with Physical Disabilities Between 1945 and 2007
The lost bodies in sports, Taiwan: The history of sports for individuals with physical disabilities between 1945 and 2007 By Cheng-Hao Huang Doctoral thesis Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements For the award of Doctor of Philosophy of Loughborough University June 2019 © Cheng-Hao Huang 2019 In memory of my father i Abstract This thesis presents a history of sports for individuals with physical disabilities in Taiwan between 1945 and 2007. A Foucauldian lens is adopted. Primary data was collected from personal archives of key informants who had lived experience with the developments during this period and with whom interviews were also conducted. Materials were organised using Foucauldian genealogy and analysis was conducting using the lens of biopower to investigate how the bodies of people with physical disabilities were organised in relation to power in the rehabilitation and sporting context. The research portrays how, between 1945 and 1971, the epidemics of poliomyelitis left a large number of children in Taiwan paralysed, and most of them were segregated in institutions. These children became a social problem, and in these institutions, rehabilitation was regarded as physical education and thus became the hallmark of the special education at this time. Development in sports for the disabled occurred between 1972 to 1992, as the authorities began to pay attention to sports for these individuals and it was employed as a tool to encourage them to contribute to the greater national good. Between 1993 and 2007, the status of individuals with physical disabilities entered a liminal state in which they were neither fully included nor excluded in the sports for the disabled in Taiwan.
