背景2006年《联合国残疾人权利公约》反映了社会对残疾人看法的变化。然而,《公约》没有具体说明如何实施和衡量构成《公约》的条款,以及如何利用这些信息进一步加强残疾人的人权。方法对《生活质量公约》中的34篇文章与8个核心生活质量领域之间的关系进行分析。结果生活质量核心领域与《生活质量公约》中的34条有密切关系。此外,可以通过评估与八个生活质量核心领域相关的指标来评估这些文章的现状。结论基于对这些与生活质量相关的结果的评估,可以使用三种策略来加强智障人士的人权。这三项是采用以人为本的规划,发布提供者简介,并实施支持系统。
Background The changed societal views of persons with disabilities are reflected in the 2006 United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. However, what is not specified in the Convention is how to operationalise and measure the Articles composing the Convention, and how to use that information to further enhance the human rights of persons with disabilities. Method The authors analyse the relationships between eight core quality of life domains and the 34 Articles contained in the Convention. Results There is a close relationship between the core quality of life domains and the 34 Articles contained in the Convention. Furthermore, the current status of these Articles can be evaluated through the assessment of indicators associated with the eight core quality of life domains. Conclusions Based on the assessment of these quality of life-related outcomes, three strategies can be used to enhance the human rights of persons with intellectual disability. These three are to employ person-centred planning, publish provider profiles and implement a system of support.
