Socially sustainable development

Guidelines and tools

Participation and involvement of all stakeholders, particularly the intended beneficiaries is the key to successful development projects. Disabled people and their organizations are able and willing to participate in poverty reduction efforts.

The GPDD members and the participating DPOs offer their expertise on disabilities, on living conditions of disabled people and on accessibility requirements to the planning and implementation of poverty reduction strategies. "Nothing about us without us" is the justified slogan of people with disabilities.
