“We have been working together with other UN agencies, as part of the Spotlight Initiative, to ensure that GBV responders are considered as essential service providers during times of crisis, even for COVID-19. So we want to make sure that people know these services [helpline or in-person visits] continue to be made available to them… Let’s not forget that there are other ongoing issues that also need support and our attention!”

December 3 marks the International Day of Persons with Disabilities.
Amid the #COVID19 pandemic, we have seen how challenges long faced by persons with disabilities have been exacerbated in many ways, through gaps in programmes and support services, to stigma and discrimination all the more. UNFPA Asia-Pacific has created this first-of-its-kind video at UNFPA, seeking to make the film truly accessible to persons with a range of disabilities, including visual impairment.
As such, the video treatment may be new for many viewers. The more you watch, the more you realise how crucial accessibility - something the majority of us take for granted - is to millions of persons living with disabilities the world over.
We must all do what we can to understand the needs and challenges of persons with disabilities, to foster inclusion and respect, in the spirit of rights and choices for all.
Respect, recognise, engage!

My Body, My Life, My World is UNFPA's new global strategy for adolescents and youth. It puts young people—their talents, hopes, perspectives and unique needs—at the very centre of sustainable development. In doing so, it supports the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals, and aligns with the new United Nations Strategy on Youth as well as UNFPA's 2018-2021 Strategic Plan.
