Disability and Human Rights Observatory - Portugal

Disability and Human Rights Observatory (ODDH).

The aim of the Disability and Human Rights Observatory (ODDH) is to follow-up the development of disability policy in Portugal and Portuguese-speaking countries and to promote participatory processes of monitoring and promotion of disability rights.

Monitoring progress and advocating for the rights of people with disabilities.

The Disability and Human Rights Observatory (ODDH) serves as a vigilant watchdog, closely monitoring the development of disability policies in Portugal and Portuguese-speaking countries. Its core mission is to promote participatory processes for monitoring and advocating for the rights of people with disabilities, ensuring that their voices are heard and their needs are met.

Shadow Reports: Analysing Legislation Implementation.

The ODDH plays a crucial role in producing shadow reports on disability-related issues. Through this mechanism, the observatory gains access to information and evaluations of legislation implementation, enabling a thorough analysis of how the rights of people with disabilities are being respected in terms of accessibility implementation.

Fostering Participation and Collaboration.

The ODDH stands out as a catalyst for participation and collaboration among various civil society sectors, government entities, and international organisations. This synergy of efforts is essential to ensure that the rights of people with disabilities are recognized and protected, promoting the construction of a more just and inclusive society for all.
