Which of the following is NOT a core human rights value related to disability?

• A. Autonomy
• B. Dignity
• C. Equality
• D. Privacy

Answer: (D)

Autonomy, dignity, and equality are central ideas in disability rights because they focus on the person’s ability to control their life, be treated with inherent worth, and have the same rights and opportunities as others. Autonomy emphasizes making own choices and having support to do so; dignity ensures respectful, non-stigmatizing treatment; equality means non-discrimination and access to services and participation.

Privacy, while an important general right, isn’t typically framed as a core disability-rights value. It relates to safeguarding personal information and boundaries, which can intersect with disability issues (like health data or disclosure of status), but the emphasis in disability contexts is on enabling autonomy, ensuring dignity, and achieving equality of rights and access. Therefore, privacy is the option that does not fit as a core disability-rights value.
