To mark 500 days to Paris 2024, the Sports Federation for the Disabled of Slovenia – Slovenian Paralympic Committee (NPC Slovenia) invited 100 active and former Slovenian athletes (15 para-athletes and 85 non-disabled athletes) to the Šiška Athletic Stadium, Ljubljana to support the #WeThe15 campaign, raising awareness on social inclusion and equal opportunities for the disabled. Participating athletes expressed their support by stepping into a purple circle, the symbol of the #WeThe15 movement, and together voiced the message: We’re all equal in sport. This symbolic gesture was an expression of respect for one another and a call for equal opportunities in society for each and every individual.

This event marked 500 days until the start of the Summer Paralympic Games, which will be hosted by Paris 2024.
