Respecting the human rights of persons with psychosocial and intellectual disabilities: an obligation not yet fully understood
The human rights of persons with disabilities is one of the areas I have taken up most frequently in my country work, with the most recurrent issues being the right to live in the community and deinstitutionalisation; the right to legal capacity; and the right to an inclusive education. A considerable part of this work has focused on the rights of the persons with psychosocial and intellectual disabilities, who are among the most vulnerable and marginalized groups in society.
