The Para sport story of Burkina Faso.

The IPC records Burkina Faso’s Paralympic participation from Barcelona 1992, with cycling, judo and powerlifting among its international disciplines. National development plans in 2013 sought to widen competition and identify athletes. In 2021, Kouilibi Victorine Guissou earned a javelin bronze at the Tunis Grand Prix through an IPC-supported pathway, linking development assistance with international competitive experience.
