55:37Now PlayingA Conversation with U.S. Special Advisor on International Disability Rights Sara Minkara
People with disabilities comprise 15 percent of the world’s population and are disproportionally likely to experience harm in conflict zones. Despite this, they are routinely excluded from peacebuilding. Yet, disability rights have proven to be a unifying issue across conflict lines. Organizations of persons with disabilities have been playing a growing role in recent years, advocating for inclusive peace and disability rights in conflict and post-conflict settings.
Join USIP for a conversation with U.S. Special Advisor on International Disability Rights Sara Minkara on how the United States can lead a disability-inclusive response to conflict, as well as the International Disability Rights Playbook, which will be launched on December 3.

The United States Institute of Peace is a national, nonpartisan, independent institute, founded by Congress and dedicated to the proposition that a world without violent conflict is possible, practical and essential for U.S. and global security. In conflict zones abroad, the Institute works with local partners to prevent, mitigate, and resolve violent conflict. To reduce future crises and the need for costly interventions, USIP works with governments and civil societies to build local capacities to manage conflict peacefully. The Institute pursues its mission by linking research, policy, training, analysis and direct action to support those who are working to build a more peaceful, inclusive world. Learn more about USIP
