For an emergency response to be effective everyone must be involved. This includes persons with disabilities.
These videos focus on raising awareness about the importance to involve Organisations of Persons with Disabilities (DPOs/ OPDs) and persons with disabilities in humanitarian action, using the Inter Agency Standing Committee – IASC Guidelines on the Inclusion of Persons with Disabilities in Humanitarian Action, published in 2019.
They are designed to promote the implementation of quality humanitarian programmes in all contexts and across all regions, and to establish and increase both the inclusion of persons with disabilities and their meaningful participation in all decisions that concern them.
These videos were created as part of the VIVIDT Project main aim was to create a global community of practice working towards disability inclusion in humanitarian action and volunteering.
With the additional support of IOM Iraq and CBM Global and the effort of VIVIDT partners ASPEM, Abilis, CBM Ireland, EDF, we translated the videos in 10 languages:
Italian, Spanish, Arabic, French, Swahili, Portuguese, Russian, Bangla, Ukrainian, English.
