New Zealand has sent delegations to the Summer Paralympics since 1968, and to the Winter Paralympics since 1980. The Paralympic Games are a multi-sport event for athletes with physical and sensorial disabilities. This includes athletes with mobility disabilities, amputations, blindness, and cerebral palsy. The Paralympic Games are held every four years, following the Olympic Games, and are governed by the International Paralympic Committee (IPC).[1]
