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)
LCV: Last Country Visit made by Special Procedures to the country   
CCPR: Human Rights Committee   CESCR: Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights  
CEDAW: Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women   
CAT: Committee against Torture   CRC: Committee on the Rights of the Child   
CRPD: Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities
UPR: Universal Periodic Review   VAW: Violence against Women  TBS: To be Scheduled

 

* 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).
