On our way towards real freedom of movement of all persons with disabilities!💚 We welcome the European Commission's proposal for the #EUDisabilityCard. Next, we will work hard to ensure it paves the way for a long-term recognition of disability status & access to services.

“We need concrete action to LNOB. We are visioning disability rights as human rights. Development actors should rethink how we design and implement programs where we take persons with disabilities at the center," says disability rights advocate Abia Akram. #SDGSummit2023
