The UNCRPD does not contain a definition of “disability” and/or “persons with disabilities”. Its preambular paragraph (e) asserts that “disability is an evolving concept”; Art 2 UNCRPD provides definitions of the UNCRPD’s key terms, but not of “persons with disabilities”. Rather a description of the term “persons with disabilities” is included in Art 1(2) UNCRPD, as part of the UNCRPD’s purpose. See Emily Kakoullis, Yoshikazu Ikehara, in Ilias Bantekas, Michael Ashley Stein, Dimitris Anastasiou, The UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities: A Commentary (OUP 2018).
