By shifting the focus from cause to impact, it places all Health conditions on an equal footing allowing them to be compared using a common metric--the ruler of Health and disability.
The ICF thus mainstreams the experience of Disability and recognizes it as a universal human experience.
It acknowledges that every human being can undergo a decrement in Health and thereby experience some degree of disability.
Disability is not something that only happens to a minority of humanity.

It covers body functions and structures, activities and participation, from both individual and societal perspectives.
