The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) from World Health Organization (WHO) “acknowledges that every human being can experience a decrement in health and thereby experience some degree of

disability. Disability is not something that only happens to a minority of humanity. The ICF thus ‘mainstreams’ the experience of disability and recognises it as

a universal human experience.” http://www.who.int/classifications/icf/en/
