The Paralympic Committee of Kosovo, (Albanian: Komiteti Paralimpik i Kosovës, Serbian: Параолимпијски комитет Косова / Paraolimpijski komitet Kosova), is the governing body for parasports in Kosovo.[3][4]

History

The Paralympic Committee of Kosovo was granted provisional membership of the International Paralympic Committee by its Governing Board on 16 July 2022.[5][6][7][8][9] Full membership is expected to be granted at the next IPC General Assembly. Provisional membership grants all the privileges of full membership except the ability to vote, propose motions or nominate candidates at meetings of the General Assembly. Provisional membership gives athletes from Kosovo the right to participate in the Paralympic Games and Kosovo is expected to make its Paralympic debut at, Paris 2024.[1][10][11][12]
