United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities at Local Level: Discussion (Resumed)

Ms Siobhán McKenna:
They have gone back to their families and friends and said it is actually an okay place for them and they will get a chance like everybody else. All communities are different. What works to engage the migrant community is not necessarily what will work to engage the disabled community or the LGBT community. To assume that we can take the same approach with all is a mistake.
