Abstract
EN RESEARCH OBJECTIVE: This study aims to investigate the intersection of world order transformations, sustainable development goals, and their implica‑tions for individuals with disabilities. It seeks to analyze how shifts in global governance structures and sustainable development agendas either include or marginalize people with disabilities.THE RESEARCH PROBLEM AND METHODS: The research problem focuses on the potential exclusion of people with disabilities from global devel‑opment efforts amid evolving world orders and sustainable development initia‑tives. This study employs a qualitative approach, incorporating literature review, policy analysis, and case studies to examine the multifaceted dynamics involved.THE PROCESS OF ARGUMENTATION: Through an examination of the historical context of world order transformations, an analysis of international development agendas, and an evaluation of their impact on individuals with disabilities, the study builds a nuanced argument. It explores how global gov‑ernance structures can either facilitate or impede the inclusion of people with disabilities in sustainable development initiatives.RESEARCH RESULTS: Findings indicate that, although notable progress has been made in recognizing disability rights within global development frame‑works, significant gaps remain.

It underscores the need for policy co‑herence, intersectional approaches, and meaningful engagement with disabled communities in shaping development agendas. This research provides innova‑tive insights into the complex interplay between global politics, sustainable de‑velopment, and disability rights.
