The Independent Commission for Human Rights (ICHR) | Shadow report - Based on information provided to the ICHR, the number of persons with disabilities integrated in the governmental school system was just 1 percent of the total student population. MoE data showed that8 68.7 percent of water closets at governmental schools were aligned to the needs of children with disabilities and 60.6 percent had installed ramps for these children. No information is available on the alignment of, or access to, governmental schools with a view to meeting the needs of other types of disabilities, such as aligned means of transportation and classrooms. In the light of the foregoing, the ICHR recommends that:  Financial resources needed for development expenditures be provided to improve education and develop educational programmes for all social groups and marginalised (rural) areas, Wall-adjacent communities, remote villages, persons with disabilities, etc. Cultural rights - The State of Palestine’s report makes no mention of programmes provided by the Ministry of Culture to expand access to the internet and digital technology, research and development expenditure, and distribution of this expenditure. Information is also lacking on how effective the Ministry’s programmes are and the extent to which they achieve set goals, taking into account poor budgeted allocations (a mere 0.003 percent of the total general budget). There is no information about financial support delivered by the Ministry to community cultural institutions across Palestine. 8 MoE. Yearbook of Educational Statistics 2022. 16
