In 2023, 16% of the world's population have some form of disability and as much as 1 in 4 in the EU. As someone with disability in my family, this is a topic close to my heart and there is still much work to be done to improve their life experiences in areas such as social inclusion and safety. A recent Global UN survey concluded that 84% of disabled people do not have a personal preparedness plan in the face of disasters. As global crisis events continue to increase, we need more priority on policy-maker agendas for the people who are at such socioeconomic disadvantage from the outset. #EDPD2023 #EUDisabilityRights #DisabilityAwareness
