On the International Day of Persons with Disabilities , ARTICLE 19 underscores the right of people with disabilities (PWDs) to access information on an equal basis with abled persons. This right is firmly enshrined in international law and Tunisia’s national obligations.

As Tunisia intensifies efforts to digitise its public administration, ARTICLE 19 urges authorities to prioritise inclusive digital transformation that ensures equal access to information for all. This step is crucial for enabling PWDs to exercise their civil, political, economic, social, and cultural rights fully. The right of access to information held by public bodies (RTI) is a fundamental human right recognised under Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, ratified by Tunisia in 1969.

Article 21 of the CRPD obliges states to ‘take all appropriate measures to ensure that people with disabilities can exercise the right to freedom […]
