A Polish organisation had held the first international edition of a beauty pageant for women in wheelchairs in an effort to change social perceptions about people with disabilities.
Aleksandra Chichikova, from Belarus, was the winner of the Miss Wheelchair World in Warsaw.
Lebohang Monyatsi, from South Africa was the first runner-up, followed by Polish woman Adrianna Zawadzinska.
The event was organised by The Only One Foundation, which was founded by two disabled women seeking to break down barriers limiting disabled people.
