Human Rights for People with Disability- Australian Shadow Report Consultation

The purpose of the Consultation Material is to provide an outline of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) and its Optional Protocol, to encourage discussion in relation to the rights, needs, potential and abilities of persons with disabilities to work towards promoting full implementation of the rights enshrined in the CRPD and to identify the key issues surrounding the full recognition and protection of these rights. In identifying the issues, Section 2 of the Consultation Material provides the information as to the obligations and indicators associated with specific rights enshrined in the CRPD to inform an assessment of the current status of the rights of persons with disabilities in Australia.
