Abstract

Globally, >80% of the population live in low- and middle-income countries,1,2,* 95% of all countries,3 and 75of ∼120 countries in which an autism-specific organization has been established are low- and middle-income countries.4 However, most autism research is based in high-income countries and despite an increase in autism research, a vast majority of individuals on the autism spectrum continue to be unrepresented in autism research.
