The State of the World's Children - UNICEF
The 2013 edition of The State of the World’s Children is dedicated
to the situation of children with disabilities. This UNICEF report examines the barriers that deprive children with
disabilities of their rights and keep them from participating fully in society, such as inaccessible buildings, dismissive attitudes, and invisibility in official statistics. It also lays out some of the key elements of inclusive societies that respect
and protect the rights of children with disabilities, adequately support them
and their families, and nurture their abilities, so that they may take
advantage of opportunities to flourish and make their contribution to the
world.
