WORLD regularly submits alternative reports to the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD). In these reports, we detail the legal and/or constitutional landscape in the country vis à vis the commitments it has made under the Convention, propose questions for the Committee to ask the countries during the review process, and suggest concluding observations that the Committee include in its post-review report to each country.
In these reports, we focus on topics fundamendal to equality and non-discrimination for persons with disabilities. Topics in our reports have included equality and non-discrimination in constitutions, non-discrimination in work and employment, reasonable accommodation at work, non-discrimination in education, inclusive education and guaranteed accommodations and support for students with disabilities.
We invite you to browse our past submissions below, or via the UN Human Rights Treaty Bodies website.
