It is estimated that about 15% of the world's population are people with disabilities, 75 million people in the world require a wheelchair (RDS), but only 5% to 15% of them have one. The importance of mobility is reflected in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, which promotes "effective measures to ensure that persons with disabilities enjoy personal mobility with the greatest possible independence".
