een lichamelijke, intellectuele of psychische beperking
Disability refers to any condition that makes it harder for a person to do certain activities or participate equally in society, and can be cognitive, developmental, intellectual, mental, physical, sensory, or a combination of these—present from birth or acquired later in life. Understanding disability matters because it's not a simple binary concept; disabilities vary widely from person to person and may be visible or invisible, requiring society to recognize and accommodate this diversity rather than applying narrow, one-size-fits-all criteria.
