    An Analysis of Accessibility and Enjoyment of the Right to Health of Persons with Disabilities. A Case Study of Mukono District.
    (Uganda Christian University, 2025-05-28) Anna Miracle Kamwita
    This study analyzes the accessibility and enjoyment of the right to health of persons with disabilities (PWDs) in Mukono District Uganda. It uses the qualitative approach and desktop research method, incorporating qualitative interviews among PWDs, their caretakers and healthcare workers. The research reveals that although Uganda has enacted legal frameworks about the right to health PWDs, significant gaps in physical accessibility, information accessibility, and stigma persist. The study therefore, recommends enhanced enforcement of disability laws, disability awareness programs for health workers, and infrastructural adaptations to promote inclusive healthcare environments.
