Previously, inmates with disabilities underwent medical evaluations that allowed them to obtain a disability certificate ; The only legal document that certifies this condition in a person and facilitates their registration in the RNPCD.
Thus, to date, Conadis has 428,086 registrations of people with disabilities, including men (248,683) and women (179,403), excluding records of deceased people, voluntary withdrawals and nullities.
Although the gap is still large, Conadis reaffirms its commitment to articulate efforts that promote certification and registration campaigns at the national level, with emphasis on vulnerable sectors, such as the prison population.
It should be noted that “Disability Certification” is a prioritized service framed in the National Multisector Policy on Disability for Development by 2030, which is strengthened through inter-institutional coordination to reduce structural discrimination towards people with disabilities, allowing Thus, that this relevant sector of the population achieves its comprehensive development and full exercise of its rights in an inclusive society, with opportunities for all.
