Malta Paralympic Committee
Inspiring communities through Para Sport and empowering Para Athletes to unlock their full potential, in sport and beyond.
Malta Paralympic Committee (MPC) is the national body for the development and promotion of Para Sport in Malta.
Their mission statement is to inspire communities through Para Sport and empower Para Athletes to unlock their full potential, in sport and beyond. MPC's projects and initiatives are focused on three core areas - education and awareness, grassroots development and competitive Para Sport.
Through their initiatives, MPC assists individuals with various eligible impairments (physical, visual and/or intellectual) to get involved in Para sport. MPC firmly believes that meaningful participation in Para sport empowers such individuals to develop in a holistic way. Whether they are social Para athletes or competitive ones, Para sport has the ability to leave a deep and lasting impact on the individual's physical, mental and social wellbeing. Furthermore, MPC collaborates with educational and sports institutions, medical and healthcare professionals, NGOs, project partners, government and private entities and other individuals with the aim of engaging the public with the Paralympic Values of Equality, Courage, Determination and Inspiration.
