Violence against women with disabilities 2012, para. 22
Párrafo- Paragraph text
- Indigenous women with disabilities often experience multiple forms of discrimination and face barriers to the full enjoyment of their rights, based on their indigenous status, their disability and their female identity. The incidence of violence against them is heightened by factors, such as living in a context of high levels of alcohol and substance abuse, which leads to violence against them; cultural and linguistic barriers; lack of education services for children with disabilities in native communities; and systemic poverty. They may also encounter barriers resulting from the use of conflicting or complex traditional and contemporary justice and service systems.
