Like the Olympics and Paralympics, Special Olympics believe in the power of sport to create a better world. Each organisation has a slightly different focus and very different levels of awareness and funding.

Special Olympics is the only organisation authorised by the International Olympic Committee to use the word "Olympics". This authorisation is enshrined in a Protocol of Agreement signed in 1988.
