Abstract

The World Health Organization estimates that 1.3 billion people, which represents about 16% of the global population, are presently living with some form of disability. Sadly, these individuals are also at higher risk of discrimination, poverty, social exclusion, violence, and abuse. Thankfully, global initiatives are rising to this challenge. The United Nations has set a target to foster social, economic, and political inclusion for all by 2030, regardless of factors such as disability. Similarly, the European Commission's Strategy for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities 2021-2030 seeks to achieve the full participation and non-discrimination of people with disabilities in society.
