Globally, an estimated 1.3 billion people live with some form of disability today.
Ghana is not left behind, as persons with disabilities make up nearly 10 percent of the population.
Facing discrimination and lack of opportunity, many Ghanaians with disabilities are systematically excluded from access to services and places, legal aid, healthcare, and more.
Often, these disparities are sharper in rural settings with a greater lack of infrastructure, investments, and institutional support.
