Abstract:
In 2003, the National Survey of Persons with Disabilities identified 2,176,123 persons (7.1% of the total population of the country) with an impairment that affects some of the most important aspects of everyday life (walking, standing up, sitting down, seeing, hearing, learning, or general behavior). In Argentina, several laws support the rights of persons with disabilities. However, inappropriate implementation of these legislations, particularly in the inland provinces, results in shortage of services, low labor force participation, and poor housing conditions. The number of rehabilitation professionals is not sufficient to satisfy the demand for rehabilitation.
