The United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD) is an international treaty adopted in 2006 to promote and protect the rights of individuals with disabilities. It aims to ensure that people with disabilities enjoy the same rights and freedoms as everyone else, addressing issues such as accessibility, education, and employment. The convention emphasizes the importance of inclusion and participation in society, encouraging countries to implement laws and policies that support the rights of persons with disabilities. By ratifying the UNCRPD, nations commit to removing barriers and fostering an environment where individuals with disabilities can thrive and contribute to their communities.
