Training Manual on Human Rights for Persons with Disabilities

We found the following information via the Disabled People’s International email newsletter.

"The Training Manual on Human Rights for Persons with Disabilities" was launched during the seventh session of the Council on Human Rights, Geneva, on 18 March 2008.

The manual, prepared by AIFO (Italian Association Amici di Raoul Follereau) and DPI (Disabled Peoples International) Italy, in collaboration with the Mongolian National Federation of Organizations of Persons with Disabilities, with financial contributions from the United Nations, is available in English and Mongolian and aims to promote the participation of persons with disabilities and their families in the ratification and implementation of the Convention.

AIFO and DPI will supervise the translation of the Manual into French, Spanish and Portuguese. The English version of the Manual is available at
