According to the United Nations, the theme of the International Day of Persons with Disabilities 2025, “Fostering disability-inclusive societies for advancing social progress,” builds on the reaffirmed commitment of world leaders gathered at the Second World Summit for Social Development to build a more just, inclusive, equitable and sustainable world, and their understanding that advancing progress on social development depends on, and indeed necessitates, the inclusion of all segments of society.
