This open access book introduces the human development model to
define disability and map its links with health and wellbeing,
based on Sen's capability approach. The author uses panel survey
data with internationally comparable questions on disability for
Ethiopia, Malawi, Tanzania and Uganda. It presents evidence on the
prevalence of disability and its strong and consistent association
with multidimensional poverty, mortality, economic insecurity and
deprivations in education, morbidity and employment. It shows that
disability needs to be considered from multiple angles including
aging, gender, health and poverty. Ultimately, this study makes a
call for inclusion and prevention interventions as solutions to the
deprivations associated with impairments and health conditions.
