Abstract
Monitoring the Convention on Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) is important to ensure full participation of persons with disabilities in society. Statistical information on disabled population is used to develop policies that improve the lives of disabled people. In this article, we propose a model for statistically tracking the realization of CRPD rights.
