States

A State that ratifies the Convention agrees to promote and ensure the obligations and legally binding duties that are clarified by the Convention to guarantee the equal enjoyment of all human rights by all persons with disabilities. States must never discriminate on any grounds, including disability, must ensure a minimum level of economic, social and cultural rights immediately, and must make progressive steps towards the realization of the economic, social and cultural rights outlined in the CRPD. States have obligation to report to the CRPD Committee on measures taken to implement the Convention.
