The Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities

The book focuses on the modus operandi of the Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD Committee), the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) monitoring body, and its main tasks, namely monitoring functions and interpreting the CRPD provisions. Unlike other doctrinal contributions, it analyses all aspects of the CRPD Committee, including those of an institutional nature (membership, sessions, methods of voting, relationships with other organs, and others). The target audience of the book is composed of academics and students of international human rights law. Furthermore, it serves as a guide for civil servants, NGOs, DPOs, practitioners and other stakeholders involved in implementing disability rights.
