They have employed information and communication technologies to share health information and resources, resist restrictions on their mobility, and forge new opportunities for themselves; efforts that contributed to controlling the risk of COVID-19 transmission within the camp in early 2020 and generating an innovative early-warning system to combat disasters exacerbated by climate change.

This content aligns with Goal 3: Good Health by advocating for a deeper understanding of neurodevelopmental conditions, such as Down syndrome, through a process-based approach that recognizes the dynamic and interdependent nature of development. By shifting the focus from static classifications to understanding the interactions and processes that contribute to neurodiversity, the paper promotes better health outcomes through more effective interventions and support strategies for individuals with these conditions. Additionally, it supports Goal 10: Reduced Inequalities by addressing the limitations of traditional research methods, which can marginalize the experiences of neurodiverse individuals, and by advocating for inclusive research practices that consider diverse perspectives and promote equity in the understanding and treatment of neurodevelopmental conditions.
