Abstract |
|
|
| The study aims to identify the efforts exerted to empower Saudi women with disabilities in the economic, social, educational, and healthcare sectors within the framework of Saudi Arabias Vision 2030. The research adopts a descriptive-analytical methodology, presenting a comprehensive review and analysis of studies, reports, and goals of the general and specific vision of the KSA that are related to the empowerment of Saudi women with disabilities. One of the most important findings of the study is that there is a significant interest in the target population in the economic sector. Available data indicate an increase in the representation of persons with disabilities in the labour market from 7.70% in 2017 to 12% at the end of 2020. Moreover, the study found that the Saudi Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development plays a significant role in the social empowerment of women with disabilities. However, this does not negate the fact that there are many obstacles to the empowerment of Saudi women. The study recommends that more efforts should be exerted to increase the opportunities available to Saudi women with disabilities to expand their participation in the economic, social, cultural, educational, and healthcare fields.
