Ten outstanding females and three organisations have been shortlisted for the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) 2021 International Women’s Day Recognition awards, with winners to be announced on March 8, the global celebration day for women and gender equality.
This is the second year, since its inception in 2013, that the International Women’s Day Recognition has expanded into categories, awarding primarily women in the Paralympic Movement who inspire and emulate the Paralympic ideals, and serve as positive role models.
Five outstanding female candidates have been named in the respective Builder and Next Generation categories, and three organisations have been shortlisted for the National Paralympic Committee and International Federation (NPC/IF) category.
