From 7 to 9 November 2026, the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) brought together representatives of national Paralympic committees, international federations, regional bodies and disability sport organisations in Berlin. According to the IPC’s account, more than 250 people attended. Germany’s State Minister for Sports and Volunteering, Ronald Rauhe, welcomed participants and highlighted the role of sport in disability inclusion.

A central subject was the IPC’s strategic plan for 2027–2030. Member organisations discussed proposed objectives and how the Paralympic Movement could judge its progress over the next strategic cycle. The IPC also briefed participants on the ongoing transfer of governance for sports it has directly administered.

Other sessions addressed Para sport development, athlete classification, leadership development and cooperation between members. Participants also looked at how measuring results can support fundraising. The IPC’s published account summarises the discussions and the consultation on the forthcoming plan.
