To better understand how the pandemic crisis has affected people with disabilities, WFD in Albania commissioned a study with its partner Together for Life. The report is based on a survey carried out in the 6 main districts of the country with the participation of 360 individuals.

Some of the questions this report aims to answer are:

• Did this social category suffer additional economic strains?  
• Did the pandemic affect their employment?
• Has the pandemic impacted the services offered to PwD?
• How has the lock-down affected their health status and health care services?
• Which are the main concerns of PwD during the pandemic?
• How effective has been the Government response in the treatment of Covid-19 for PwD?
