|December 11, 2024
LUCKNOW: One in ten children globally lives with a disability, and 47% of them are less likely to access primary education due to limited opportunities or discrimination, according to a recent UNICEF study.
These findings were shared during a workshop on children's inclusivity organised by UNICEF UP on Tuesday, ahead of World Human Rights Day.
The study also revealed that 27% of children with disabilities worldwide are likely to drop out of upper secondary education.
The primary causes include deprivations in health, nutrition, education, and protection.
"Girls and children from marginalized communities are even more vulnerable," said the report.
