Evidence Digest, Issue 15: Focus on Political Participation and Leadership

Worldwide, people with disabilities face barriers to taking part and leading in politics. In this evidence digest, we present the latest evidence and guidance on the right to vote, inclusive elections, engagement in decision-making processes and the representation of people with disabilities in elected office. The evidence digest is introduced by Laurène Leclercq who presents learning from Sightsaver’s work to promote the rights of people with disabilities in civic and political life in Cameroon and Senegal.
