Driving health equity for persons with disabilities through inclusive health system strengthening - Guide for Organisations of Persons with Disabilities

This practical guide supports Organisations of Persons with Disabilities (OPDs) to advocate for disability-inclusive health systems and greater health equity. Grounded in the CRPD, it promotes the meaningful participation of OPDs across health planning, policy development, implementation, service delivery, monitoring and accountability.

It provides practical steps, advocacy priorities and indicators to help OPDs engage with health authorities, assess barriers, influence health policies and services, strengthen disability-disaggregated data, and monitor progress towards accessible, affordable and equitable healthcare.
