UfM I Conference on Disability and Social Inclusion in the Mediterranean – Final Report

The UfM I Conference on Disability and Social inclusion in the Euro-Mediterranean region, which takes place almost one year after the adoption of the EU Strategy for the rights of persons with disabilities 2021-2030, should serve to promote awareness on the needs of the persons with disabilities. It is also a tool to promote economic and legislative measures to foster an actual improvement in the quality of living of those affected by a disability. The aim of the conference is to discuss rights, challenges, and limitations of persons with disabilities in the Euro-Mediterranean region. It is an opportunity to bring together national and regional policy makers, civil society actors, and experts to share adequate recommendations, policies, and practices for post-COVID agendas and recovery programmes in the region.
