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.
