    As a commitment to diversity and inclusion initiatives, Citi\u2019s partnership with the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) provides a powerful platform to change perceptions of people with disabilities. As part of this partnership Citi supported 23 National Paralympic Committees (NPCs) and 49 Para athletes in the lead up to the Tokyo 2020 and Beijing 2022 Paralympics. Athletes were selected for accomplishments in sport and in their lives and represent a diverse group to be firsthand advocates for the Paralympic Movement and disability inclusion.<\/p>\n

    Ahead of the Tokyo Paralympics, Citi arrived at a powerful insight in conversations with Team Citi Paralympic athletes; You shouldn\u2019t stare at a person with a disability.\u00a0 But what if that person was a three-time gold medalist?\u00a0 Or a world-record holder? Would it be okay to stare then? The roster of Team Citi athletes formed the basis for the \u201cStare at Greatness\u201d campaign launched ahead of the Tokyo Paralympics, and updated for the Beijing Paralympics.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/div>\n
