We offer an overview of international and domestic legislation that defines the specifics of protecting people with disabilities in emergency situations.
International standards and national regulations were analyzed in detail during a webinar held by the National Assembly of Persons with Disabilities of Ukraine as part of the project “Strengthening the protection of the rights of persons with disabilities during humanitarian response and recovery in accordance with the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities”.
For those who were unable to join the conversation, we have prepared a summary of these documents. We hope it will help those who strive to make the environment more accessible for persons with disabilities.
The project “Strengthening the protection of the rights of persons with disabilities during humanitarian response and recovery in accordance with the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities” is being implemented by the NAPD within the framework of a grant from the International Disability Alliance (IDA).
