Why UniExo?

More than a billion people are estimated to live with some form of disability, or about 15% of world’s population (based on 2017 global population estimates). This is higher than previous World Health Organization estimates.


The number of people with disabilities is growing. This is because populations are ageing – older people have a higher risk of disability. Chronic diseases are estimated to account for 66.5% of all years lived with disability in low-income and middle income countries.
