| Description |
|
This handbook explains the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) within the context of other core human rights treaties to strengthen its place in the mainstream of human rights discourse. It also provides information on interpreting the text of the CRPD and gives guidelines for its implementation at the local, national, regional and international levels. The handbook supports the movement that recognises persons with disabilities not as objects of pity or charity but as persons with human rights. |
