Peru: Disability Rights at Risk with New Bill

The Commission on Social Inclusion and People with Disabilities in the Peruvian Congress approved the draft bill on February 8, 2021, without engaging in a broad consultation process with groups representing people with disabilities. The Commission’s approval paves the way for the bill to be approved by Congress in the coming weeks. If passed, the bill would replace law 29973, the General Law on Persons with Disabilities, jeopardizing many rights protected in the previous legislation, including the right to consent to mental health treatment.
