All Means All has made a submission to the United Nations Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities on the Draft Guidelines on Addressing Multiple and Intersectional Forms of Discrimination Against Women and Girls with Disabilities.
Our submission focuses on education as a domain where intersecting discrimination on the basis of gender, disability, Indigeneity, race, and socio-economic status compound disadvantage for girls and women with disability and limit their lifelong opportunities.
All Means All has called for the Committee to affirm inclusive education as a transformative and rights-based measure that advances equality, and to urge States to adopt positive duties requiring education providers to proactively eliminate discrimination.
