The Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD Committee) is the body of independent experts which monitors implementation of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) by the States Parties. All States Parties are obliged to submit regular reports to the Committee on how the rights of persons with disabilities are being implemented. The Committee examines each report, holds an interactive dialogue with the State delegation in a public session and makes recommendations on the steps which should be taken to improve CRPD implementation.
IDA in cooperation with a number of DPOs participating at the CRPD 20 has compiled a number of interviews:
- Interview with Kadijatou Mamouni, the Niger Federation of Disabled People (French Captions);
