Statement at the 34th Session of the Human Rights Council – Item 3 – Special Rapporteurs on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities

“Tending “to those in need takes strength and tenderness, effort and generosity in the midst of a functionalistic and privatized mindset which inexorably leads to a ‘throwaway culture’. To care for individuals and peoples in need means taking responsibility for the present with its situations of utter marginalization and anguish, and being capable of bestowing dignity upon it”
