Beyond Paralympics: Building an accessible society for all

China Daily  

A fireworks display marks the close of the 2022 Beijing Winter Paralympics at the National Stadium in Beijing on March 13, 2022. One legacy greater than the stunning total of 61 medals won by China – 18 golds, 20 silvers, and 23 bronzes – is the seed of an accessible society in all respects for people living with disabilities. Efforts to build a barrier-free environment for both the Paralympics athletes and spectators date back to 2016, when the Beijing 2022 Organizing Committee started working on the first draft of The Guide to Barrier-Free Services, just one year after the capital of China was selected as the host city. At Beijing National Aquatics Center, a Z-shaped accessible lane, which was 80 meters long and 2 meters wide, made its way to the ice rink; accessible seats were set up for spectators with disabilities and their companions; extra-wide temperature measuring doors were friendly to wheelchair users. As China steps into a new era, its people and leadership are calling for greater accessibility for individuals with disabilities not just at the Paralympics, but in every fabric of society – from special education to fulfilling employment, from better rehabilitation services to more affordable medical insurance.
