History

Following a decree made by the International Olympic and Paralympic committees in 2001, the country chosen to host the Olympic Games must also host the Paralympic games. When Paris won the bid to host the games in 2024, this meant that for the first time the Paralympic Games would be held in the City of Light. Overall, this will be the 17^th Paralympic event, and the first to share an official logo with the regular Olympic Games.
