Paralympic athletes are proof that limits exist only in the human mind." This was said on the occasion of the opening of the Paralympic Games "Kosova 2024", where games in eight disciplines will take place on Saturday and Sunday, in Vushtrri.

At the opening ceremony, the president of the Paralympic Committee of Kosovo, Njomza Emini, emphasized that this category of athletes is factual evidence of how far one can reach with confidence and determination, regardless of the situation in which we find ourselves.

Meanwhile, the director of the Kosovo Academy for Public Safety Lastriot Jashari said that this institution proudly continues to support the activities of the Paralympic Committee, thus giving a message that society should empathize with this category and that they are a vital part of society and equal in each field.

Also, before the start of the competitions, the agreement was signed between the Paralympic Committee of Kosovo and KFOR, for the acceptance of the wheelchair donation for para-athletics signed by the president, Njomza Emini and the commander of KFOR in Kosovo, Enrico Barduani.
