Tras el terremoto de Turquía y Siria en febrero de 2023, se brindó respuesta de emergencia a la población afectada. Las personas jóvenes con discapacidad fueron uno de los grupos sociales más afectados por la crisis. Se trata de jóvenes que adquirieron una discapacidad como consecuencia del te...rremoto, o jóvenes con discapacidad que sufrieron mayor aislamiento tras el terremoto, debido a barreras estructurales, agravadas con la crisis.
Como repuesta a esta situación, el Pacto para la Juventud en la Acción Humanitaria contactó al Grupo de Trabajo sobre Personas Jóvenes con Discapacidad de Juventud 2030, con el objetivo de apoyar a los equipos humanitarios que brindan asistencia en terreno. Concretamente, esta Guía Corta busca apoyar a los equipos en el terreno para asegurar la participación significativa de personas jóvenes con discapacidad en la respuesta humanitaria local. La versión actual de esta Guía Corta se ha creado para un contexto más amplio: será útil no solo en el caso de Turquía y Siria, sino también en otras crisis humanitarias.
Las personas jóvenes con discapacidad son aquellas entre los 15 y los 24 años de edad con impedimentos físicos, mentales, intelectuales o sensoriales a largo plazo que, al interactuar con diversas barreras sociales, pueden dificultar su participación completa y efectiva en la sociedad en igualdad de condiciones con los demás1 . Sin embargo, según el contexto, se considera personas jóvenes a aquellas entre los 15 y los 29 años. Por ejemplo, en el movimiento por los derechos de las personas con discapacidad, algunas organizaciones proponen este rango de edad más amplio2 debido a las barreras estructurales que afectan al desarrollo de las personas con discapacidad y, por ende, su posterior transición hacia la edad adulta.

The world is facing a sustainable development crisis. The 2024 Financing for Sustainable Development Report: Financing for Development at a Crossroads finds that financing challenges are at the heart of the crisis and imperil the SDGs and climate action. The window to rescue the SDGs and prevent a c...limate catastrophe is still open but closing rapidly. Financing gaps for sustainable development are large and growing – the estimates by international organizations and others are coalescing around $4 trillion additional investment needed annually for developing countries. This represents a more than 50% increase over the pre-pandemic estimates. Meanwhile, the finance divide has not been bridged, with developing countries paying around twice as much on average in interest on their total sovereign debt stock as developed countries. Many countries lack access to affordable finance or are in debt distress. Weak enabling environments are preventing progress. Average global growth has declined, while policy and regulatory frameworks still do not set appropriate incentives. Public budgets and spending is not fully aligned with SDGs. Private investors are not incentivised to invest enough in SDGs and climate action. The world is at a crossroads. This is the last chance to correct course if we want to achieve the SDGs by the 2030 deadline. Only an urgent, large-scale and sustainable investment push can help us achieve our global goals. Next year’s Fourth International Conference on Financing for Development in 2025 will be a once in 80-year opportunity to support coherent transformation of financing.
