| Annotation | This first ever World Report on Disability aims to provide evidence to support policies and programmes that can improve the lives of people with disabilities worldwide. The report is published in the wake of the U.N. Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, which came into force in May 2008. Main topics covered include understanding disability, the global picture, general health care, rehabilitation, assistance and support, enabling environments, education, and work and employment. A concluding chapter looks at the way forward including recommendations. (JL). |
