This year we celebrate International Day of People with Disability on 3 December 2024.
The 2024 United Nations (UN) theme is: Amplifying the leadership of persons with disabilities for an inclusive and sustainable future.
The theme this year reflects the current international political and policy context, in particular the Pact for the Future and the upcoming 2025 World Summit for Social Development, and the need to create momentum for achieving the 2030 Agenda. The theme seeks to amplify the centrality of the leadership role of persons with disabilities, in all of these efforts - from the global to the local.
To celebrate this year, the DIIU will highlight the stories of leadership within our community.
