More Details:

In conclusion, in the present report, submitted pursuant to Human Rights Council resolution 37/20, the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights provides an overview of the legal framework and practical measures to empower children with disabilities.

Also, she focuses on empowerment through participation and inclusive education, and analyses how to foster the personal and public decision-making of children with disabilities,

their inclusion in the community and their protection from abuse, exploitation and violence.

The High Commissioner concludes the report with a number of recommendations to assist States in empowering children with disabilities for the enjoyment of their human rights.

More so, the report makes reference to the higher likelihood that children with disabilities experience rights violations, including their right to a family.

Consequently, below are some of the sections of the report related to the care of children with disabilities:

II. Empowerment through participation

B. Enabling children with disabilities to decide on their own lives

Additionally, children with disabilities must have a say on where and with whom they want to live.

Lastly, they must be enabled to meaningfully participate in all decisions relating to their care arrangements,

including proceedings concerning removal from parents or placement in alternative care.9
