This year’s event will examine Article 30 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD) in Ireland, which focuses on the participation of disabled people in cultural life, recreation, leisure and sport.
The event will bring together disabled people and their representative organisations, public officials and academics in order to discuss barriers faced by disabled people and proposed solutions. It will also examine international practices and European Union developments relevant to this theme, including learning from other countries which could inform potential solutions to address the challenges and barriers faced.
