In September 2013, the United Nations General Assembly will hold a High-level meeting on Disability and Development to raise awareness about the work of the UN in ensuring the equality and inclusion of persons with disabilities in all aspects of society and development. A social media campaign "Break Barriers - Open Doors" will highlight how persons with disabilities can have a positive impact in their respective communities.

On 20 September 2013, the United Nations Postal Administration will issue six stamps on the theme "Break Barriers - Open Doors". For this stamp issue, UNPA selected artists from around the world with incredible stories that highlight the positive power of full and equal participation of peoples with disabilities.
