Paralympics Australia is a Company Limited by Guarantee, which allows voting members of the Company under its Constitution. At present, there is one membership type – a Voting Member.
Voting membership (with associated rights and obligations under the Paralympics Australia Constitution) is specifically for NSOs or similar governing bodies whose sport is currently competed for on the current programme for the Summer or Winter Paralympic Games. We have recently reviewed our membership strategy and criteria to make it contemporary and more closely aligned to our strategic goals – a key one being to support organisations and athletes to achieve success at Paralympic Games.
The general obligations and responsibilities of Paralympics Australia and Voting Members is outlined in our Constitution, and our Rights and responsibilities of membership. Sport Partnership Agreements detail the relationship between Paralympics Australia and the relevant sports.
Members of Paralympics Australia must abide by our relevant policies and codes (including our People Protection Policy, Codes of Conduct, Classification Policy, Anti-Doping Policy and Anti-Match Fixing Policy), which are available in our Integrity Framework.
For more information on membership, please contact Paralympics Australia.
