The African Paralympic Committee President has begun a stakeholder consultation to include Para-Sport as part of the African Union and its government programs to promote and project sport in the Specialized Technical Committee (STC) policy framework. The African Paralympic Committee owns the organisation of the African Para Games on the African Continent and believes in a partnership with the AUSC to jointly include para-sport in its bidding and hosting of the African Games as a standalone event after the Olympic event.

Minister of Sports, Mr ABDERRAZZAK AKKARI, who is the Director of Sports at the Ministry of National Education, Primary Education and Sports, some vital information of mutual interest regarding the Inclusion of Para Sport, bidding and hosting, participation and organisation strategy.
