Disability in the Arab region: A challenged vulnerability

Abstract
Disability is increasingly understood as a component of the international development agenda, producing rights-based approaches to disability-inclusive development. Responding to the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (2006) and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development,there has been a global push to expand the inclusion of persons with disability. Specifically, to ensure: universal access to sexual and reproductive health-care services, including for family planning and providing information and education; and the eradication of gender-based violence, and; ending all forms of discrimination against women and girls, including the elimination of violence and harmful practices, such as child and early marriage and female genital mutilation. The overall aim of this formative research study was to develop an in-depth understanding of the sexual and reproductive health and reproductive rights concerns, gender disparity and gender-based violence, effects of age in order to address challenges related to disabilities in the Arab region.
