Portugal faces significant challenges in applying the rights of people with disabilities, according to a warning issued by the National Monitoring Mechanism for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.
The warning is contained in a report prepared by this body responsible for monitoring and evaluating the implementation of rights for this population.
The document identifies persistent barriers that still affect the full inclusion and participation of people with disabilities in Portuguese society.
These conclusions reinforce the need to continue working to ensure that the rights of these people are effectively respected and applied in Portugal.
