Since then, Uganda has taken part in every edition of the Summer Paralympic Games, although it had only one representative in 2000 (women's swimming), two in 2004 (women's athletics and men's powerlifting), and one in 2008 (men's powerlifting).

It sent only one representative, Tofiri Kibuuka in cross-country skiing, who thus became the first African to compete at the Winter Paralympic Games.

Uganda was again the only African nation at the 1980 Winter Paralympics, once more with Kibuuka as its sole representative.

Kibuuka subsequently obtained Norwegian nationality, and ceased to represent Uganda.
