The World Para Ice Hockey Championships, known before 30 November 2016 as the IPC Ice Sledge Hockey World Championships, are the world championships for sledge hockey. They are organised by the International Paralympic Committee through its World Para Ice Hockey subcommittee.

The first sanctioned World Para Ice Hockey Championships were held in Nynäshamn, Sweden in 1996.[http://www.hockeycanada.ca/en-ca/Hockey-Programs/Sledge/History/Important-Dates.aspx Important Dates], Hockey Canada

On 30 November 2016, the IPC, which serves as the international governing body for 10 disability sports, adopted the "World Para" branding across all of those sports. At the same time, it changed the official name of the sport from "sledge hockey" to "Para Ice hockey". The name of the world championships was immediately changed to "World Para Ice Hockey Championships" (WPIHC).{{cite press release|url=https://www.paralympic.org/news/ipc-rebrand-10-sports-it-acts-international-federation |title=The IPC to rebrand the 10 sports it acts as International Federation for |publisher=International Paralympic Committee |date=30 November 2016 |access-date=13 December 2016}}
