Promote the adoption and adaptation of universal accessibility norms at the global level. Promote the adoption of a Universal Accessibility Global Action Plan, envisioning the implementation of accessibility assessments and quantifiable and measurable enhancement proposals based on the best practices, including that of Ecuador. Include universal accessibility as a cross-cutting issue in the agenda- setting discussions leading to Habitat III.
