Brief background

Following CRPD and UNDIS principles, the UNCT in Indonesia wished to enhance its collaboration with OPDs in order to increase the participation of persons with disabilities in program and policy development with the UN and our Indonesian government partners.

As part of the project, we developed a database of OPDs from across the country to facilitate access for UN agencies to those organizations, and their participation in UN advocacy and other initiatives. The UN will also offer this database to government and private sector partners to promote the inclusion of people with disabilities in consultation processes and other participatory initiatives.
