Publications and correspondence, 1992 - 1999
Scope and Contents
There is some overlap between this and series 14, since Dr. Andersson’s involvement with the United Nations was primarily in the field of disability rights, including the United Nations Decade of Disabled Persons (1982-1992) and the drafting of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities in 2006-2007. Besides these areas, this series also includes material from health-related UN organizations such as the WHO, UNICEF, and UNESCO on the classification of disability and rights of the disabled.
