However, this is not the case. Society's relationship with People with Disabilities (PwD) has changed over time. The emphasis shifted from disregarding them, to placing emphasis on the barriers that society constructed by not taking them into account, which prevented the development of their full autonomy. As paradigms emerged, they also became intermingled, and these mixtures between models did not end up emphasizing the person and his or her rights within the society of which they are a part. Above all, the right to express oneself as a subject of rights in democratic societies. There are other mismatches around this binomial. On the one hand, to continue framing people with disabilities as a minority and therefore treat them as such. According to the latest report of the World Health Organization in November 2017, there are more than 1 billion people with disabilities worldwide, representing about 15% of the world's population.   Cuando se piensa en el binomio “derechos humanos” y “discapacidad”, fácilmente se suelen concebir como históricamente entrelazados. Sin embargo no es así. El vínculo de la sociedad con las Personas con Discapacidad (PcD),  fue cambiando a lo largo del tiempo.  Se pasó de prescindir de ellas, a colocar el énfasis en las barreras que la sociedad construyó por no tenerlas en cuenta, lo que impidió el desarrollo de su plena autonomía.  A medida que fueron surgiendo paradigmas, también se fueron entremezclando, y estas mixturas entre modelos no acaban de poner el énfasis en la persona y sus derechos dentro de la sociedad de la que son parte. Sobre todo el derecho a expresarse como sujeto de derechos en sociedades democráticas. Hay otros desfasajes más en torno a este binomio.  Por un lado, seguir enmarcando a las personas con discapacidad como una minoría y, por lo tanto, tratarlas como tal. Según el último informe de la Organización Mundial de la Salud [1] de noviembre de 2017, existen más de 1000 millones de personas tienen discapacidad a nivel mundial, lo que representa cerca del 15% de la población mundial. Quando se pensa no binômio "direitos humanos" e "deficiência", eles são facilmente compreendidos como historicamente entrelaçados. No entanto, não é este o caso. O vínculo entre a sociedade e as Pessoas com Deficiência (PwD) mudou ao longo do tempo. A ênfase passou de desconsiderá-las, para colocar ênfase nas barreiras que a sociedade construiu ao não considerá-las, o que impediu o desenvolvimento de sua plena autonomia. Com o surgimento dos paradigmas, eles também se entrelaçaram, e estas misturas entre modelos não acabaram enfatizando a pessoa e seus direitos dentro da sociedade da qual faziam parte. Acima de tudo, o direito de se expressar como sujeito de direitos nas sociedades democráticas. Há outros desajustes em torno deste binômio. Por um lado, continuar a enquadrar as pessoas com deficiências como uma minoria e, portanto, tratá-las como tal. De acordo com o último relatório da Organização Mundial da Saúde em novembro de 2017, existem mais de um bilhão de pessoas com deficiências no mundo inteiro, representando quase 15% da população mundial.
