The event will celebrate six years of transformative progress under UNDIS—strengthening accountability and embedding disability inclusion across policies, programmes and operations—while highlighting achievements and the opportunity to go further.
At a time of global transformation and pressure on multilateralism, COSP19 offers a critical moment to renew ambition, reaffirm the principles of dignity, equality and non-discrimination, and position UNDIS 2.0 as a catalyst for stronger, more consistent results—supporting Member States to advance the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
