An infant, enadult with an injury, a parent with a pushchair, an elderly person are alldisabled in one way or another. Those who remain healthy and ablebodied throughout their lives are few. The physical environment andpublic services and public spaces in general should be as barrier-free aspossible to fulfil the needs of all people equally. People with a disabilityhave the same rights as other people. People with a disability are not ahomogeneous group. They may include the mentally retarded.
