This analytical report is the culmination of a research study conducted in four countries of Central Asia (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Turkmenistan) and Azerbaijan in spring 2017. The primary focus of the study was disability rights, which have a direct impact on the quality of life experienced by people with disabilities, and analysis of potential strategies and opportunities for civil society organizations to improve disability rights in target countries.


Through the study, the research team followed the latest legislative and policy changes relevant to disability rights, and identified and documented best practices, lessons learned, and key challenges related to the promotion and protection of disability rights in the region.
