ABSTRACT
This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the key concepts discussed in the preceding chapters of this book. The book focuses on some aspects of the right to legal capacity protected by Article 12 of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. There are also many more and diverse perspectives and experiences than those which have been included in this collection which deserve to be documented, considered and responded to. The acknowledgement that realising the universal right to legal capacity is not an impossible pipe dream but an urgent necessity. That those who have experienced rights violations are best placed to imagine better and design a more equal, just and compassionate world. This work is necessary to spread the message of Article 12 and the Convention as a whole, about respecting the autonomy, integrity and dignity of all human persons, with and without disabilities.
