The National Council for Persons with Disabilities (NCPD), in collaboration with the Electoral Commission, organized a Community Baraza on political participation for Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) in Luwero District.
Held under the theme “Empowering Voices: Political Participation of Persons with Disabilities,” the baraza aimed to address barriers that hinder the full participation of PWDs in electoral processes.
Key discussions focused on accessibility challenges, inclusive policies, voter education, and the role of government and civil society in promoting disability-inclusive democracy. Participants highlighted issues such as inaccessible polling stations, lack of information in accessible formats, and discriminatory practices.
The Electoral Commission outlined initiatives including the nationwide mapping of PWDs and efforts to ensure inclusive voter registration. The engagement reaffirmed the commitment of NSSIGs and its partners to safeguarding the democratic rights of persons with disabilities.
