    The Council of Europe has long provided protection for the rights of persons with disabilities, through both the European Social Charter and the European Convention of Human Rights. In this context, it is particularly remarkable the role of the innovative case law of the European Court of Human Rights. After an overview of the most recent ECtHR disability case law, the article focuses on Guberina v. Croatia. The judgment offers the opportunity to discuss the influence of the 2006 United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities on the European Court of Human Rights case law, as well as its evolution and future prospects

    The Council of Europe has long provided protection for the rights of persons with disabilities, primarily by means of the European Convention on Human Rights and the case law of the European Court of Human Rights. However, in the past few years the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities has profoundly changed that case law, assuming a prominent role in the Court’s interpretation of disability rights. Against this background, the article examines the influence of the UN Convention on the case law of the European Court of Human Rights, as well as on the new Council of Europe Disability Strategy 2017–2023
