The day is celebrated annually on 3 December.  It is aimed at promoting an understanding of disability issues and it mobilises support for the dignity, rights and well-being of persons with disabilities. It also seeks to increase awareness and integration of persons with disabilities in every aspect of political, social, economic and cultural life.

This year’s commemoration coincides with the celebration of 23 years of democracy in South Africa and 33 years since Disabled People South Africa was launched.
