| Description | In this chapter we examine the evolution of the governance structure of the IPC, focusing on organisational structure and design to demonstrate how the changing environment of governance has influenced and is influenced by the evolving parasport field. While the IPC has attempted to remain a distinct global sport organisation, we noted the tendency of the IPC to imitate the IOC's governance and management structures. We reflect on four distinct phases of governance for the IPC: (1) initial formation; (2) professionalisation; (3) separation of management and governance; and (4) streamlining. Our aim is to reflect how governance has evolved overtime to meet the needs of a changing global sport organisation and the landscape of parasport governance.
