Disability

Up one level

"Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social services, and the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age or other lack of livelihood in circumstances beyond his control."

Disability Disability Awareness in Action
Disability Awareness in Action (DAA) is an international human rights network, run for and by disabled people. The DAA web site is just one way in which we pass information and news to disabled people - and our representative organisations - around the world. Although we are delighted when disabled people from any region make use of our services and resources, DAA’s efforts are particularly focused on people in developing countries. Most of DAA’s information comes from disabled people themselves; our aim is to ensure that disabled people have access to any and all information that concerns our human and civil rights.
Disability DPA New Zealand
DPA is the collective voice of people with disability in New Zealand based on principles of human rights and equal value of life.
Disability Mental Disability Rights International
Established in 1993, MDRI documents conditions, publishes reports on human rights enforcement, and promotes international oversight of the rights of people with mental disabilities. Drawing on the skills and experience of attorneys, mental health professionals, human rights advocates, people with mental disabilities and their family members, MDRI trains and supports advocates seeking legal and service system reform and assists governments to develop laws and policies to promote community integration and human rights enforcement for people with mental disabilities.
Disability Rights for All
