In this series, we invite some leaders in the parasport community to have a conversation with us about the legacies of major parasport events. In this series, we'll address the most pressing topics that impact, threaten, or even bolster these legacies. Among these topics, we will touch on the impact of COVID-19, returning to sports, and media.
We would appreciate participation in the focus groups. You can simply add your comments, answers, solutions and further questions to this forum or fill in the linked questionnaire.
Walk down memory lane with us, as we look back to past games and reflect on their subsequent legacies. Share your own memories and opinions around participation opportunities, accessibility, and inclusion that have resulted from these games.
