En s’appuyant sur les ODD et sur la Stratégie mondiale, ainsi que sur la Convention relative aux droits de l’enfant (CRC) et sur la Convention sur l’élimination de toutes les formes de discrimination à l’égard des femmes (CEDAW ), l’UNICEF imagine un monde où aucun enfant ne décède ...de maladies évitables, et où chacun d’entre eux réalise pleinement son potentiel sur le plan de la santé et du bien-être. Pour les cinq premières années (2016-20), la Stratégie de l’UNICEF en matière de santé (ci-après dénommée «la Stratégie») fixe deux grands objectifs :
1. Mettre fin aux décès évitables de mères, de nouveau-nés et d’enfants;
2. Promouvoir la santé et le développement de tous les enfants.
Pour atteindre ces objectifs, la Stratégie prend en considération les besoins des enfants en matière de santé à tous les stades de la vie.

The study analyses the current situation of children with disabilities in relation to realizing their rights and accessing basic services, as well as their life experiences in their communities.
