Progressing health equity for persons with disabilities – Darryl Barrett, WHO (Part 1)
Manage episode 361140619 series 2902575
Our guest this week is Darryl Barrett, technical lead for disability with the World Health Organization in Geneva, who joins us to discuss the WHO Global Report on Health Equity for Persons with Disabilities. The report was released in December 2022, 10 years after the publishing of the World Report on Disability in 2011.
An estimated 1.3 billion people (16% of the global population) currently experience a significant disability. The WHO report highlights that while some progress has been made in recent years, the world is still far from realising the right to health for many people with disability.
In this episode, we discuss:
- The significance of the WHO Global Report on Health Equity for Persons with Disabilities.
- The contributing factors that lead to health inequities for people with disability.
- Intersectionality and the compounding discrimination that women and girls with disability are more likely to face.
- How we should consider moving forward to improve health outcomes and equity for persons with disabilities.
