Good practice - Transregional/Global
Including disability in poverty reduction strategies (PRS) may
be one of the most effective ways for people with disabilities to
actively participate in developmental programmes. For this reason,
Handicap International, the Christoffel-Blindenmission (CBM) and
the German Technical Cooperation (GTZ) have agreed on a cooperation
on PRSP and Disability.
These organisations are currently implementing activities in
several countries based on the handbook
"Making PRSP Inclusive" and on past experience
in Tanzania, Bangladesh, Sierra Leone and Honduras. Project
activities already started in Vietnam, Cambodia and Tanzania.
In addition to the project activities other initiatives can be
found worldwide. To share information within the project and with
other organisations involved in similar activities a project
newsletter is provided regularly. In these newsletters you'll find
reports on the current country activities, as well as contributions
from other organisations, like VSO.
