The 1 billion people with disabilities around the world have diverse needs and views. People with disabilities must have the chance to take part in elections to have their needs and views represented. But they still face barriers during elections – from problems with physical accessibility to a lack of supported decision-making. They are under-represented as voters, candidates and politicians, as well as election administrators and observers. ODIHR observes elections to see if full participation is taking place in elections throughout the OSCE. Information gathered by observers can help people with disabilities to be better included in future elections. This new booklet provides easy-to-understand information about people with disabilities’ rights to take part in politics and elections and how they can be observed.
