During a health crisis... persons with disability, especially women with disability face multiple barriers in accessing information and services. They are often excluded from decision-making spaces and have unequal access to information on outbreaks and availability of services. They can be socially isolated or dependent on other family members for support. Amidst a health crisis like the COVID-19 pandemic, protecting and fulfilling the rights of persons with disability includes at its most basic ensuring the provision of accessible information, taking into consideration different accessibility needs, and ensuring that persons with disability are able to access government support and services. While international standards emphasize nondiscrimination, and while domestic laws offer de jure protection and assurance of reasonable accommodation, reality on the ground is often filled with many barriers and challenges. Experts recommend that in order to ensure the protection of the rights of women with disabilities during health crisis, the following should be undertaken by the State: Ensure active outreach to collect feedback from persons with disabilities. Disseminate information that uses clear and simple language Provide information in accessible formats, like braille, large print. Offer multiple forms of communication, such as text captioning or signed videos, text captioning for hearing impaired, online materials for people who use assistive technology. Involve organizations of persons with disabilities in consultation and/or decision-making. Provide tailored approach to meet individual needs, work with personal carers and other social support networks. In addition to the above guidelines, the Commission on Human Rights, as Gender Ombud reiterates the need to ensure accessibility, specially to information, health services, and support services for persons with disability. The Commission also reminds local government units, from the barangay to the city/municipal level, and on to the national government to prioritize needs of the vulnerable, including persons with disability, elderly, and single headed households.
