Realizing the rights of persons with disabilities requires disability data and statistics. It requires statistics that are based on concepts that are in line with a human rights approach to disability, disaggregated by disability status, and reflect various aspects of the lives of persons with disabilities and their diversity. This report provides (i) a systematic analysis of the disability questions in national censuses and household surveys globally between 2009 and 2018 and (ii) indicators disaggregated across disability status for 41 countries with census or household survey data that are based on internationally comparable disability questions.
