As OPDs, it is critically important for us to facilitate or engage in human rights mechanisms, to lead change, and hold governments accountable. These processes can help us track progress, expose violations, and push for reforms.
We are proud to share that our Full Member – Mental health Support Group (MHSG), a national OPD of persons with psychosocial disabilities in Maldives has taken a lead to work with Maldivian movements and prepare a shadow report for the 33rd Session of the UN Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities for the CRPD.
The submission has been developed in partnership with TCI and supported by the International Disability Alliance (IDA) to bring forward the key concerns and share recommendations for the inclusion of persons with psychosocial disabilities in the Maldives.
