Council Chairperson Vladyslava Kravchenko: The election of the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) Governing Board was completed during an online Extraordinary General Assembly, with seven Members-at-Large elected. The election of these members was conducted as per the decision in the General Assembly in September.
In September’s General Assembly in Seoul, South Korea, the IPC members elected Brazil’s Andrew Parsons as President for a third term and voted in Portugal’s Leila Marques Mota and Denmark’s John Petersson as Vice-Presidents. However, due to time constraints, the election of the seven Members-at-Large was adjourned after the first round of elections.
On Thursday, Debra Alexander, Chelsey Gotell, Fernando Riaño, Mohamed Duaij Alkhalifa, Robyn Smith, Miki Matheson, and Bradley Snyder were elected as Members-at-Large to serve four-year-long terms.
