The right of equitable participation in electoral processes for persons with disabilities – to be voters, candidates, members of electoral authorities or observers – is of particular importance to ensuring a democratic electoral process that meets the criteria of ethics and integrity. This event is envisaged to engage stakeholders in an exploration of possibilities and options for achieving a more equitable representation of persons with disabilities in electoral processes, with the aim of contributing not only towards better legislative and policy solutions for persons with disabilities, but also towards a better society for all.
