Information by Countries
As a service to national DPOs, IDA has elaborated the following matrix where national DPOs can find updated information on recommendations related to rights of persons with disabilities included in Concluding Observations recently adopted by relevant Treaty Bodies and in UPR Working Group recommendations (in particular, those that were accepted by the State under Review) as well as information from Special Procedures related to different countries.
In the following matrix you can also find information on UN treaties ratified by your country and the dates of recent and future revisions.
If you click on the name of your country, you can find links to the disability recommendations included in Concluding Observations from Treaty Bodies and in UPR recommendations, as well as other relevant information.
* Acronyms that appear in the box:
CO: Concluding Observations LoI: List of Issues LoIPR: List of Issues Prior to Reporting
LCO: Last Concluding Observations (since 2009)
LR: Last Recommendations of the UPR Working Group (since 2008) NR: Next Review
RS: Report Submitted (but the date to be reviewed by the Committee, yet to be confirmed)

* BOX UNDER CONSTRUCTION
(This box is under construction so it could happen that when you click on the name of your country, you cannot find the information and documents related to your country. We are working to have available the information related to all countries as soon as possible. Sorry for the inconveniences).
