Bonn, Germany - Today, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) Co-ordination Commission for the Sochi 2014 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games concluded its second visit to the Russian host city.
In regards to Paralympic Games preparations, Sochi 2014 presented a very ambitious Barrierfree Programme concept, which would contribute to enhance the living conditions of people with a disability in Russia.
During the Paralympic working group, accessibility provisions and the concept of the Paralympic Villages (Costal and Mountain) were discussed.
Said Mr. Sagarra: "We are very satisfied with the great foundations laid by the Organizing Committee for the first Paralympic Winter Games in Russia. Creating an environment without barriers, with Sochi becoming an accessible city for the Sochi 2014 Winter Games and beyond will help to create a legacy with real social impact on Russian society."
The Sochi 2014 Paralympic Winter Games will be held from 7-16 March 2014.
