EU Disability Strategy 2021-2030

The European Commission adopted the European Disability Strategy, entitled “Union of Equality: Strategy for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities 2021 – 2030” in March. The aim of the strategy is to tackle the challenges disabled people face, at the EU and Member State level, and to ensure that disabled people: enjoy their human rights, have equal opportunities, have equal access to participate in society and economy, are able to decide where, how and with whom they live, can more freely in the EU regardless of their support needs, and no longer experience discrimination.
