Singapore signed the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD) on Friday, 30 November. The UNCRPD sets out the obligations by States to promote and protect the rights of persons with disabilities. The Enabling Masterplan (EM) 2012-2016, which was released this year, has paved the way for Singapore to sign the Convention. The EM sets out how we will progressively realise the vision of an inclusive society for persons with disabilities.
