Descripción: | More than one billion people around the globe live with some form of disability. Many face barriers and discrimination every day. Their abilities are overlooked and their potential underestimated. To change this, the United Nations is working side by side with governments, international organizations, and civil society. On 3 December, the International Day of Persons with Disabilities (IDPD) is celebrated worldwide to promote awareness and mobilize support on critical issues to ensure that persons with disabilities are included in society and development. |
