As we have already reported, the European Paralympic Committee (EPC) and the European University Sports Association (EUSA) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding earlier this year.

The agreement is intended to provide the inclusion of higher education students with disabilities and impairments in the EUSA program, especially in the frame of the European Universities Games, and the establishment of cooperation between the members at the national level.



In order to prepare events for students with disabilities within the next edition of the European Universities Games, which will be held in Zagreb and Rijeka (Croatia) in 2016, EUSA and EPC are conducting a survey, to get more information about student athletes with disabilities in Europe.

EUSA member federations and the governing Paralympic bodies in our member states have been asked to complete a short survey regarding sport and students with disabilities and impairments.



Outcomes of the survey are planned to be presented towards the end of the year

For more information regarding this pan-European survey, please contact at the national university sport body, or the national paralympic body in your country.
