Mozambique made its Paralympic Games début at the 2012 Summer Paralympics in London, sending two visually impaired athletes to compete in track events.[1]

One athlete, Edmilsa Governo, was sent to the 2016 Summer Paralympics where she won a bronze medal.[2]

Mozambique has never taken part in the Winter Paralympic Games, and no Mozambican athlete has ever won a Paralympic medal.[1]
