On 30 November 2016, the International Paralympic Committee, which serves as the international federation for 10 disability sports, including powerlifting, adopted the "World Para" brand for all 10 sports. The world championship events in all of these sports were immediately rebranded as "World Para" championships. Accordingly, future IPC powerlifting championships will be known as "World Para Powerlifting Championships".https://www.paralympic.org/news/ipc-rebrand-10-sports-it-acts-international-federation The IPC to rebrand the 10 sports it acts as International Federation for International Paralympic Committee 30 November 2016 13 December 2016 Competition The 2014 IPC Powerlifting World Championships was the sixth championship in its series, and the second hosted by Dubai.
