In August 2020, the Ministry of Social Affairs, Veterans and Youth Rehabilitation (MoSVY) launched the national Social Rights-Based Disability Identification mechanism. This initiative aims to establish a standardized system for collecting disability-related data using the web-based Disability Management Information System (DMIS). It also involves issuing identification cards to individuals with disabilities, enabling them to access social protection services and other benefits. The national Social Rights-Based Disability Identification mechanism serves as an administrative database and forms the basis for providing services and promoting the development of persons with disabilities. Data from individuals with disabilities are collected at the village level through focal points at the commune/sangkat level, and these records are stored digitally in the DMIS.
