The Government wants to see the instruments that defend people with disabilities strengthened in the country. To this end, the Assembly of the Republic (AR) recently approved in generality the draft resolutions ratifying the accession of Mozambique to the African Charter on Human and People's Rights, on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities in Africa and the Marrakesh Treaty.

Through these instruments, the government aims to promote, protect, and ensure that all individuals with disabilities can fully and equally enjoy all human rights and respect for the dignity of the human person.

The Marrakesh Treaty is an international legal agreement that allows ratifying countries to reproduce and distribute printed texts and/or literary works in a format accessible to people with visual or any other disability. Currently, 79 countries have ratified the document, 21 of which are African.
