Concept Notes:
Person with disability

• Persons with disabilities (PWDs), according the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons With
Disabilities, include those who have long-term physical, mental, intellectual or sensory impairments
which in interaction with various barriers may hinder their full and effective participation in society
on an equal basis with others.
• The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) refer to disability as “an
umbrella term covering impairments, activity limitations, and participation restrictions.
• Impairment is a problem in body function or structure; an activity limitation is a difficulty
encountered by an individual in executing a task or action; while a participation restriction is a
problem experienced by an individual in involvement in life situations”.
• The ICF’s definition of disability denotes a negative interaction between a person (with a health
condition) and his or her contextual factors (environmental and personal factors). A comprehensive
approach in interventions is then necessary for persons with disabilities (PWDs) as it entails actions
beyond the context of health, but more on helping them to overcome difficulties by removing
environmental and social barriers (WHO, 2013).

Underprivileged Sectors of the society

• The underprivileged sector is the one that suffer the most. They include people and families that do
not have access to basic rights such as education and health services. Oftentimes, they also have
difficulties in finding work, to buy food so they cannot eat three times a day.
