SubscribeThe Vice President of the Republic of Ecuador and the World Bank have organized a continental meeting for the inclusion of people with disabilities "America Solidarity", which will be held in Quito on 11 and 12 June 2012 in Quito.
Thirty-four countries from the Americas will attend the event, where experts and leaders in promoting the rights of disabled people in Brazil, Chile, Ecuador, Spain and the United States will speak on best practices and public policies in this area. The objective of this event is to establish a continent-wide common policy on disability, to promote social inclusion of persons with disabilities. It also seeks to promote the ratification of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities United Nations.
Ecuador's Manuela Espejo Solidarity Mission will be highlighted as one of the programs of best practice in this field.
