Regional
promotion of the DMI report:
Free Movement of People with Disabilities in South East
Europe: An Inaccessible Right?
During April, May and June 2007 workshops were held in Tirana, Skopje, Belgrade and Sarajevo to present the DMI report 'Free movement of people with disabilities in South East Europe: an Inaccessible Right?'. The Podgorica promotion of the report is planned for June 26, while the one in Pristina will be held in Septembre 2007
The dissemination workshops gathered stakeholders from civil society, government, as well as professionals who are involved in building and planning within the built environment. This is an opportunity for the different actors to discuss, from their perspectives, the progress that has been made in the past five years and the positive developments that have taken place. In addition, this was a chance to define the challenges that remain and the steps needed to create a barrier free environment where people with disabilities can move freely. The promotions/workshops also presented a chance for each actor to share how they can contribute to positively changing the situation.

In
the frame of the Disability Monitor Initiative, the Free
Movement of People with Disabilites in Southeast Europe:
An Inaccessible Right examines the prevailing policies
and ensuing practices in South East Europe and how they
impact the lives of people with disabilities given the obstacles
they face in trying to participate in community life with
the extensive barriers in the built environment. The report
also looks at good practices happening in the field throughout
the region. With
the current climate of change in the region, disability
as a human rights issue must be put on the agenda of all
decision makers.

JOURNAL
3: DISABILITY STATISTICS FIGHT INVISIBILITY
The
latest issue of the DMI journal DISABILITY
STATISTICS FIGHT INVISIBILITY tackles the topic of disability
statistics in the SEE region. On the whole, lack of comprehensive
and up-to-date statistical information on disability contributes
to the exclusion of disability from the political agenda
and makes it very challenging to build effective reforms
around this issue.
