Sport Partnerships

International Federation of Adapted Physical Activity

The International Federation of Adapted Physical Activity (IFAPA) is a professional association of scholars, professionals and university students in the adapted physical activity field. A partnership agreement first began between the IFAPA and Special Olympics International on 18 September 2010 providing for a deeper association between both organisations through collaboration on projects of mutual interest and benefit. This partnership was most recently renewed in December 2021 and renewed the commitment between IFAPA members and SOI to explore opportunities for collaboration including attending and/or co-presenting at each organization’s conferences/symposia (eg: Special Olympics Research and Evaluation Seminar Series), funding proposals, and/or involving members on committees or advisory boards.
