Are official statistics about the education and employment of persons with disabilities published at least every 10 years?
At least some work has been undertaken, in the last 10 years, in over 75 percent of the countries to provide some picture on the education and employment of persons with disabilities. And in 11 of these, at least one study has been published that provides a clear picture. However, it is very surprising that in eight countries, together with California, no such study has ever been undertaken.
In Finland, there is “little official data” and the “[d]efinition of disability is one challenge”. In France, “[f]igures are open to interpretation”. In several other countries, there may have been studies, but they were of either education or employment, not both.
In the last 10 years, at least one official study has been undertaken and the results published that provide a clear picture of the education and employment of persons with disabilities.
Only certain figures are available. Or figures are older than 10 years. Or figures are open to interpretation.
No such official study has ever been undertaken.
