Ethiopia first participated in the Paralympic Games in 1968 in Tel Aviv, sending just two athletes to compete in athletics and table tennis. After years of absence, Ethiopia returned to the Games in 1976 with Abraham HABTE who competed in three sports (athletics, lawn bowls and table tennis) and also went on to attend the 1980 Games where he was only entered in lawn bowls. Twenty-four years later, Ethiopia reappeared at the 2004 Games in Athens with one athlete, Kiros TEKLE in athletics, and then again in 2008 in Beijing, with two competitors in athletics.
