Rights of Persons with Disabilities

60/60/60
Challenge

How much time will you give?
60 Seconds
60 Minutes
60 Days
In their daily lives, persons with disabilities face widespread discrimination, prejudice and barriers to social inclusion, in addition to a range of personal challenges. A lack of equitable access to places, education, employment and social programs limits their full enjoyment of human rights. To create a more inclusive world, persons with disabilities have advocated to be recognized as individuals with inherent dignity who have the same rights as everyone else.

60 Seconds: Reflect on your perspective
60 Minutes: Research, compare and share
60 Days: Critique your surroundings
