UNICEF and WHO have published a global report on children with developmental disabilities.
Developmental disabilities are common. Yet, children with developmental disabilities have been neglected in health systems planning and policy provisions for health and continue to experience stigmatization, institutionalization, barriers to access health care and inequalities in health and education outcomes.
Using findings from research and practice and guided by the tenets of international human rights conventions, this WHO-UNICEF Global Report on children with developmental…
En 2015, la adopción de la Agenda 2030 para el Desarrollo Sostenible se enmarcó en torno a la promesa de no dejar a nadie atrás. La agenda urge a comprometerse con la consecución de los 17 Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) y sus 169 metas correspondientes en beneficio de todos y cada uno de los miembros de la sociedad. Hace hincapié, asimismo, en la necesidad de llegar primero a las personas que se han quedado más rezagadas, lo que inevitablemente incluye a los niños y niñas con discapacidad y sus familias. El seguimiento de la inclusión de los niños y niñas con discapacidad en las…
En 2015, l’adoption du Programme de développement durable à l’horizon 2030 était axée sur la promesse de ne laisser personne de côté. Cette initiative appelle à contribuer à la réalisation des 17 objectifs de développement durable, et de leurs 169 cibles, et ce, dans l’intérêt de tous les membres de la société. Elle souligne la nécessité de venir en aide en premier lieu aux personnes les plus marginalisées, un groupe dont les enfants handicapés et leur famille font inévitablement partie.
Le suivi de l’inclusion des enfants handicapés dans les efforts de développement a…

In 2015, the adoption of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development was framed around the pledge of leaving no one behind. It calls for a commitment to ensure that all 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), comprising 169 targets, are achieved for the benefit of all members of society. It emphasizes reaching those furthest behind first, which inevitably includes children with disabilities and their families.
Monitoring the inclusion of children with disabilities in development efforts has long been held back by the lack of reliable and comprehensive data. Recent years, however, have…
Millions of children with disabilities around the globe continue to be left behind, despite the near-universal ratification of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, the call for action embedded in the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and the clear mandate set by the Sustainable Development Goals. Often, this neglect is the result of limited data. When absent from official statistics, children and adults with disabilities remain politically and socially ‘invisible’, increasing their marginalization and exposure to rights violations.
Recent years have seen…
Children with disabilities and children on the move represent highly diverse populations living in a broad range of circumstances. But as two of the most marginalized groups of children in the world, there is much they have in common, often-times neglected in data collection, policies and programming.
This report examines children’s lives when these two identities intersect. It asks key questions about growth, development, safety and security when children with disabilities migrate or have been displaced. While the available evidence is limited, it is clear that across contexts – from…
