International Paralympic Committee, also known as IPC, is a privately owned organization headquartered in Germany. Founded in 1989, it operates primarily in the spectator sports sector, supported by approximately 370 employees. Functioning as a tier 1 media tech buyer, the organization is the global governing body of the Paralympic Movement, with primary responsibilities including supporting its over 200 members, developing Para sport, advocating for social inclusion, ensuring the successful delivery and organization of the Paralympic Games, and acting as the international federation for 10 specific Para sports.
On March 19, 2026, the Milano Cortina 2026 Paralympic Winter Games highlighted unforgettable Para cross-country skiing moments, featuring four days of action at the Tesero Cross-Country Skiing Stadium. Earlier, on March 16, the Games concluded with a closing ceremony in Cortina on March 15, where China topped the medal table. The event saw several countries protest the decision to allow Russian athletes to compete under their national flag for the first time since 2014. International Paralympic Committee (IPC) President Andrew Parsons urged athletes to carry the spirit of the Winter Games forward into their daily lives as the XIVth Winter Paralympiad drew to a close. On March 15, Team USA finished second in the overall medal count after 10 days of competition, notably securing its record fifth consecutive gold medal in sled hockey by defeating rival Canada. Concerns also emerged regarding the competition conditions, with some athletes competing in shorts and T-shirts due to "tropical" weather, leading to complaints about soft, slow snow and safety.
