How we went about it

The objective was – in collaboration with government and non-government partners - to advocate for the IASC Guidelines on Inclusion of Persons with Disabilities in Humanitarian Action with various stakeholders in Indonesia, as well as enriching the HCT contingency plan with the guidelines. An easily accessible, succinct report analysing the existing regulations/guidelines being implemented was produced.

Working with key Indonesian humanitarian partners, the integration of disability inclusion in humanitarian preparedness and response activities was assessed and improved. This required understanding of how persons with disabilities had been included in previous response plans, and what improvements could be made to complement advancing the UNDIS and UNCT Disability Inclusion scorecard.
