In 2023, the theme of the day is about uniting to achieve the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals for, with and by people with disabilities. Everyone has a part to play, so join Sightsavers throughout December in taking global action for disability rights and inclusion.
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, published 75 years ago, laid out everyone’s entitlement to basic rights, including work, education, health care and political processes. But there is still a long way to go to ensure that the world’s 1.3 billion people with disabilities can access these rights.
Without united action, nothing will change.
