International Day of Persons with Disabilities


International Day of Persons with Disabilities is the international day in December observed by HagueTalks. Follow HagueTalks on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and YouTube for this special day exclusive posts.

On International Day of Persons with Disabilities, we must renew our commitment towards disability inclusion & ensure persons with disabilities are able to access health care, education, employment & to participate in the community.

“In the Netherlands 303 stations are not accessible for wheelchair users. This means that I cannot get off with my electric wheelchair at 75% of the stations. I won’t let my wheelchair stop me”.

Travel-loving Amber Bindels is a disability activist, creator of the initiative “Wij staan op” (“We stand up”), promoting equal rights for handicapped people.
