People with disabilities in Iran face discrimination, abuse, and an inaccessible environment. They also regularly face stigma and discrimination from government social workers, healthcare workers, and others.

The Iranian authorities should immediately amend discriminatory laws and practices and create a clear plan for making public services and facilities accessible.
