Brief Background

Accessibility is a fundamental concept that ensures places, programs, systems, and environments are designed to be usable and reachable by all individuals, regardless of their gender, age, ability, or location. As part of the Disability Inclusion Project's Physical Accessibility focus area, UN Indonesia began a process of enhancing the accessibility of its premises, particularly the Menara Thamrin Building, known as the UN House in Indonesia, which accommodates 13 UN Agencies. The project involved a comprehensive assessment of the premises guided by expert consultation and the representation of OPDs. The was intended to generate recommendations and action plans for the UNCT to implement during a follow-up assessment.
