On March 3, 2021, the European Commission introduced a strategy aimed at ensuring the full and equal participation of persons with disabilities in society by enhancing accessibility. This strategy seeks to be implemented across all EU Member States and focuses on removing barriers in healthcare, education, employment, and political participation. Additionally, it promotes income support and the creation of adapted work environments for individuals with disabilities. Key objectives and conditions for achieving these goals are outlined in the strategy document available for download in PDF format.
