Country Summary
Loading...Often, peer-reviewed studies on AT-related topics include AT indicators in findings. We conducted a systematic review to identify published studies and mapped the study locations.

Countries are increasingly including questions on AT in censuses, household surveys, and other types of routine data collection. We reviewed national survey questionnaires and map the surveys and countries that include questions that would generate AT indicators.

Population cohorts are studies that take an initial survey of a sample of individuals, and routinely follow-up with those same individuals over time, often to study how health changes as individuals age. We reviewed cohorts to identify which include modules on AT indicators, and map where these cohorts are based.

The rapid Assistive Technology Assessment survey (rATA) was developed by the World Health Organization to measure access to AT in the population. Currently, 35 countries have conducted the rATA, using either national or sub-national samples.
More information about the rATA survey is available from other WHO resources, including what the questionnaire covers and how it is administered, through both the enumerator's manual and the research protocol. Estimates across rATA countries are also presented in the Global Report on Assistive Technology.
If your organisation is interested to administer a rATA in your country, please contact general inquiries for the Global Disability Innovation Hub, the WHO Collaborating Centre on Assistive Technology.
