In conjunction with the 15th Conference of the States Parties to the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD), this side event featured the launch of the 2022 Disability Data Report of the Disability Data Initiative (DDI).  This report documents the availability of questions on disability between 2009 and 2021 in surveys and censuses. It also presented 32 indicators disaggregated by disability for 35 countries with MICS6 (Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey round 6). This Report presented results on inequalities between women with and without disabilities regarding education, personal activities, health, standard of living, multidimensional poverty, insecurity, and subjective wellbeing.

The event featured the authors of the reports and panelists with experience in terms of disability and gender.
