The book explores how structural barriers, limited resources, and socio-cultural factors contribute to the inequities in access to essential services such as health care, education, and employment for this vulnerable population. Through a detailed analysis, the book highlights the disparities that exist between high-income countries and LMICs, offering insights into the unique obstacles that individuals with disabilities encounter in these regions.&nbsp;</p>

<p>This book is of particular importance to the field currently due to the growing recognition of disability as a critical aspect of global health and development. The recent focus on inclusivity in global agendas, such as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), underscores the need for a comprehensive understanding of how disability intersects with poverty, inequality, and access to essential services.</p>
