Persons with disabilities are the world’s largest minority, representing 15% of the global population. 80% of this population live in developing countries. In a similar sense, there are sufferers of domestic violence , a majority of them being women. This article therefore, explores the various challenges faced by disabled persons and sufferers of domestic and workplace violence. It thereafter , studies the possible inter-relationships amongst them using ISM methodology.
