| dc.description.abstract | The paper deals with the concept of legal capacity as advanced in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) within the context of Uganda as a State party. The paper takes the format of analyzing what Uganda has done to comply with the Concluding Observations of the Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities in as far as they relate to the subject of legal capacity and access to justice within Uganda. The paper examines the practical challenges, legal, societal and cultural that affect the country’s ability to comply with Article 12. Within the paper, it is emphasized that Article 13 is important in creating a mechanism under which Article 12 is realized especially in the case of Uganda. The Paper briefly examines what can be done to ensure that Uganda better complies with Article 12 of the CRPD. | pl |
