Abilympics is an international non-profit movement that originated in Japan and has been developing around the world since 1971.[1] The movement holds championships on professional skills among persons with disabilities and physically and/or mentally challenged people from the age of 15. The Abilympics movement aims at:

  • increasing the aspiration of persons with disabilities for professional independence and improving their professional skills.
  • levelling up the public perception of professional skills of persons with disabilities and their social and economic engagement.
  • supporting full integration of persons with disabilities in public life paying special attention to their career development.
  • enabling the international cooperation and friendship between contestants.
  • engaging more IAF countries/regions in improvement of professional skills and career development of persons with disabilities.

As of 24 February 2021, 51 countries/regions of the world and the international organization Rehabilitation International (US) are members of the international Abilympics movement.

History of the Abilympics Movement[edit]

The name of the movement means the abbreviation of an English term "Olympics of Abilities", and it was founded in Japan. The movement has been initiated by the Japan Organization for Employment of the Elderly, Persons with Disabilities and Job Seekers, which was established in 1971. It was this organization that held the First National Professional Skills Competition for People with Disabilities in 1972 to develop the skills of people with disabilities and to stimulate their active role in the social and economic life of their societies. Initially, these championships were held in a format of professional competitions. Subsequently, however, the Abilympics movement helped to change traditional attitudes towards the potential and abilities of people with disabilities, which led to increased employment opportunities and professional stability. Nowadays these championships have become a kind of "employment opportunities fair" for people with disabilities and this task has become one of the priorities during these competitions.[2]

International Abilympic Federation[edit]

The International Abilympic Federation is a non-profit international organization dedicated to hosting International Abilympics and helping people with disabilities to find employment. The IAF was established in 1991 following the Third International Abilympics in Hong Kong in 1989. The International Abilympic Federation is run by the Japan Organization for Employment of the Elderly, Persons with Disabilities and Job Seekers. The IAF includes organizations from fifty countries/regions whose aim is to rehabilitate people with disabilities and hold professional competitions.

The IAF's activities are governed by the following laws and regulations:

  1. Constitution of the International Abilympic Federation (effective from 7 November 2015);[3]
  2. Rules for Implementation of International Abilympics (effective from October 2014).[4]

The IAF has three governing bodies – the Assembly, the Executive Committee, and the Secretariat.

Mr. Kazuo Tabata (Japan, Japan Organization for Employment of the Elderly, Persons with Disabilities and Job Seekers) is the President of the International Abilympic Federation.

Mr. Noёl Roger (France, Abilympics France) is the Vice President of the International Abilympic Federation.

The IAF Secretariat, headed by the President, who is a representative of the top management of the Japan Organization for the Employment of the Elderly, Disabled, and Job Seekers, is in charge of administrative issues. It includes 5 people:[5]

  • Mr. Tatsuya Kubomura (Secretary-General)
  • Mr. Hirotsugu Kogami
  • Mr. Nobuhiro Kato
  • Mr. Keisuke Hirai
  • Ms. Akiko Uo (International Coordinator)

The IAF Assembly includes fifty IAF member countries/regions and one international organization Rehabilitation International (US). The Assembly determines the IAF general policy and guidelines regarding International Championships. The Assembly collectively makes decisions on the admission of new IAF members, awarding the right to host the International Abilympics.

The Executive Committee is responsible for managing strategic challenges. The Executive Committee consists of 12 officers:[6]

  • Ms. Nadine Mater-Brown (Australia);
  • Ms. Amra Causevic (Austria);
  • Mr. Chi Junchang (China);
  • Mr. Petteri Ora (Finland);
  • Mr. Joseph Kwok (Hong Kong);
  • Mr. Jong-Ran Cho (South Korea);
  • Dr. Weam Abu Hamdan (Lebanon);
  • Mr. Paul Chi Meng-Pun (Macao);
  • Dr. Uma Tuli (India);
  • Ms. Khatijah Suleiman (Malaysia);
  • Mr. Friedrich Mehrhoff (Rehabilitation International, US);
  • Ms. Dina Makeeva (Russia).[7]

International Abilympics[edit]

The experience and knowledge gained during the hosting of the national professional championship for people with disabilities in Japan were used during the First International Abilympics. The championship received extensive support from governmental and non-governmental organizations. The Emperor of Japan acted as the patron of this championship.[8]

The Second International Abilympics was held in Bogota, Colombia, in 1985. During the Championship an idea occurred to create an international organization aimed at holding International Abilympics on a regular basis.

The Third International Abilympics was held in Hong Kong in 1989. As a follow-up, the International Abilympic Federation (IAF) was established in 1991.

Since then, International Abilympics have been held in Perth, Australia (1995), Prague, Czech Republic (2000), New Delhi, India (2003), Shizuoka, Japan (2007), where the championship was held at the same time with the WorldSkills, and in Seoul, Korea, in 2011, the Ninth International Abilympics was successfully held in Bordeaux, France, in March 2016, under the personal patronage of François Hollande, former President of France.

Abilympics championships are attended by people with a wide range of disabilities, and the movement covers fifty countries/regions. Champions not only win awards but also get an opportunity to obtain a decent job. Hosts of Abilympics championship in Japan and many other countries have been able to attract attention of state authorities and employers rather quickly. However, the most challenging problem they have solved is to raise the motivation of people with disabilities themselves. Abilympics have been able to show people with disabilities that opportunities and different venues are open to them. In Japan, there are training centers for people with disabilities in almost every district (let alone universities and large training centers), each has 10 to 20 students that are trained in exactly those occupations that are needed in the surrounding areas. Consequently, 80% of students get employment after completing such training.

Russia joined the International Abilympics movement in 2014. Championship formats have been gradually transformed and expanded. Numerous exhibitions, workshops, and international seminars are now held in addition to professional competitions. But the overall goal of any Championship is still the same: to draw attention to people with disabilities, to their broad potential, and the contribution they could make to their societies.[9]
