The guidelines have been created as part of VIVID-T, which is a project funded by the European Union (EU) that looks at technical assistance in humanitarian response, with a specific lens on volunteering and inclusion of persons with disabilities in these responses. The project’s aim is built on the growing evidence of the need to adapt current existing programmes to be more inclusive of persons with disabilities.
This guide is based on the new “Erasmus+ and European Solidarity Corps Inclusion and Diversity Strategy” and the European Solidarity Corps Guide 2022 and contains a set of recommendations and guidelines on inclusion of persons with disabilities in volunteering programmes as well as an overview about the new accreditation process of awarding Quality Label for Humanitarian Aid Volunteering organisations.
