Committees and expert groups

In order to have a full involvement of members and a balanced representation of all categories of disabilities, EDF set up different structures to support its work.

We achieve a balanced representation of disabilities and full involvement of our members through three types of working structures. 

Committees

Email expert groups

Our e-mail expert groups play an important role in shaping our position on specific issues and provide a source of shared learning and support within our membership. In particular, e-mail expert groups will be requested to give inputs on ongoing issues within our work programme or unexpected issues that might need immediate input from the experts.

The email expert groups are focusing on the following working areas.

  • Built environment
  • Climate Action
  • Council of Europe – #WithdrawOviedo campaign
  • European Structural and Investment Funds (ESIF)
  • Health
  • Inclusive Education
  • Information and communication technology (ICT)
  • International Cooperation
  • Refugees and Migrants with disabilities
  • Standardisation
  • Transport
