IDDC ACTIVITY REPORT 2012-2013
A Word from the ChairWelcome to the IDDC Activity Report 2012-2013. Here you can get a snapshot of IDDC’s main activities during this period as well as an overview of how IDDC functions. You can also find out more through our new website http://www.iddcconsortium.net
There are many highlights from this past year. Spring 2013 saw the completion of the IDDC EU-funded project Making Development Inclusive, which was led by Leonard Cheshire Disability. Thanks to the project we were able to intensify our joint advocacy efforts, develop new tools and become a stronger network for promoting inclusive development. The project sparked off new developments within IDDC itself such as the initiation of the Facilitator’s Forum, which brings together IDDC members who are interested in developing their skills in training and capacity building for inclusive development.
The post-MDG/post-2015 agenda has been a top priority for IDDC, and we have worked closely with partners to promote a joint message on why and how persons with disabilities should be included in the post-2015 agenda. For the first time, we developed a joint position paper with the International Disability Alliance (IDA).
Through our networks, partners and members, and with the support from the EU project, we were able to facilitate the engagement of more persons with disabilities from the South in policy dialogue, both at the EU in Brussels and at the UN in New York. The EU carried out its first ever training for staff in its Headquarters and Delegations on disability inclusive development and IDDC assisted in the development and delivery of this training programme.
This period also saw the formation of a Global CBR Network, for which IDDC prepared its own joint position. IDDC is part of the steering committee and will work to ensure that CBR implementation is supported globally and that regional CBR networks are strengthened.
Our EU Task Group has been closely involved in advocacy work related to the EU’s next 7 year budget, which we hope will be the most disability and development inclusive EU budget so far.
We have enjoyed having new members involved, and a great amount of energy within IDDC and with our close partners.
Many thanks for your collaboration and support.
Catherine Naughton Chairperson of IDDC
IDDC ACTIVITY REPORT 2012-20132 Highlights 2012 – 2013
Over the last year IDDC task groups held a series of awareness raising events in the framework of our EU-funded project Making Development Inclusive, which was finalised in March 2013. These events were organised in collaboration with our members, with active contribution from our Southern partners, in several countries across Europe addressing national policy-makers, local authorities and mainstream development organisations.

In the past year IDDC has continued to strengthen its internal functioning and capacity through regular IDDC Board and Task Group meetings, our annual General Assembly, the approval of a Communications Strategy and Action Plan for 2011 – 2013, and through an external mid-term evaluation of our EU-funded project Making Development Inclusive. The newly established Development Forum identified the inclusive post-Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) agenda and the IDDC Narrative on Inclusive Development as its two main focus areas.
IDDC ACTIVITY REPORT 2012-20134 Our Work in 2012 - 2013
Our Task Groups carry out the greatest and most significant portion of our work and main objectives. Each Task Group is organised around a specific focus; these groups consist of IDDC members who have a special competence and interest in the respective subjects. In 2012–2013 the IDDC Task Groups worked to influence the international cooperation agenda, to improve inclusive development practices and increase knowledge about disability inclusive development.
Our Task Groups work has focused on:
► Making the European Union’s (EU) development policies and practices more inclusive (EU Task Group)
► Making the United Nations’ (UN) development policies and practices more inclusive (UN Task Group)
► Development of policies and practices to foster Community Based Rehabilitation (CBR Task Group)
► Including disability on the international HIV and AIDS agenda (HIV & AIDS and Disability Task Group)
► Promoting quality Inclusive Education (Inclusive Education Task Group)
► Improving the Livelihoods of persons with disabilities with a focus on accessible financial services, social protection and skills in employment (Livelihood Task Group)
► Promoting the inclusion of persons with disabilities during Conflict and Emergency Situations (Conflict and Emergencies Task Group)
► Exchanging experience and strengthening links with Disabled People’s Organisations (DPO Partnership Task Group)

IDDC ACTIVITY REPORT 2012-2013
5 Impacting European Development Policy and PracticeThe European Union (EU) is a major stakeholder in international cooperation. Although disability inclusive development is not yet fully integrated in EU external policies and programmes, their ratification of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD), and the inclusion of external cooperation in their 10 year disability action plan, shows their commitment to disability rights in international cooperation. Our EU Task Group (EU TG) supports this move towards a human rights based approach on disability and development. The EU TG works to promote the inclusion of persons with disabilities in development policies and programmes of the EU, and for the implementation of the CRPD in EU external actions.

Our major achievements
► IDDC and the European Disability Forum (EDF), in collaboration with the European Economic and Social Committee, organised a High Level Exchange on the inclusion of persons with disabilities in the Millennium Development Goals and Beyond on 10 June 2013. The aim of the high level exchange was to feed into the EU position on the UN High Level Meeting and to highlight the importance of creating an inclusive framework to follow the MDGs in order to alleviate poverty and ensure that the most vulnerable groups, including persons with disabilities, are not left behind.
IDDC ACTIVITY REPORT 2012-20136 ► In February 2013, as part of the Making Development Inclusive project, IDDC hosted a
roundtable discussion on the implementation of the CRPD and the role of the EU’s external action in collaboration with Member of the European Parliament (MEP), Marian Harkin. Invited guest speakers raised issues faced in their respective countries and the importance of involvement by persons with disabilities in consultations regarding the post-2015 MDG agenda.
► The publication of ‘Disability and Development at the EU. Framework and Actors: an Outline’ in September 2012, edited by Lars Bosselmann, CBM. This report gives an overview of all key disability and development issues at the EU level, and can be used as a reference guide by the disability and development sector for advocacy and inclusive development towards the EU institutions. The report also lists all the EU policies and programmes which include references to persons with disabilities as well as all actors and stakeholders involved.
► The EU TG contributed to the European Commission consultation ‘Towards a Post-2015 Development Framework’ through the Making Development Inclusive project.
► The EU TG was (and still is) also heavily involved in advocacy work regarding the EU’s Multiannual Financial Framework (2014-2020) and its implementing instruments. IDDC’s goals in this are the inclusion of disability as a cross-cutting issue, accessibility criteria for EU funded projects, and ensuring that grass-root DPOs benefit from the MFF.
► In October 2012, the EU TG participated in the European Week of Action for Girls (organised by Plan EU Office), and raised the issue of accessibility. A short article by IDDC was included in the Girls’ Rights Gazette – a newspaper which is published and disseminated during the week with articles from a wide variety of stakeholders.
Influencing the United NationsThe UN Task Group (UN TG) focuses its advocacy on the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) and international cooperation. This year, the UN TG has been especially focused on ensuring that the forthcoming post-2015 agenda will include person with disabilities and therefore support the implementation and monitoring of the CRPD in international cooperation. The UN agencies and structure exert significant influence within the international development arena and we actively engage with them to ensure that the rights of persons with disabilities are respected and fulfilled.
Our major achievements
► During the UN CRPD Committee meeting in April 2013, Luisa Fenu of CBM spoke about the double discrimination that women and girls with disabilities face.
► At the UN’s 57th Commission on the Status of Women in March 2013, Handicap International, on behalf of IDDC, presented an oral statement on disability and gender-based violence at the UN session focused on the Elimination of all Forms of Violence against Women and Girls.
► IDDC members attended, Advancing the Post-2015 Sustainable Development Agenda, in March 2013 in Bonn, Germany. IDDC member Handicap International held a marketplace stall during the conference titled, “Sustainable development, inclusive of people with disabilities.”

► On 1 February 2013, IDDC was represented by Marianne Schulze during the panel discussion, Women Voices in Disability and Development, as part of the High Level Meeting on disability and development during the 68th session of the UN General Assembly.
► IDDC played a key role in advocating with the UN for a High Level Meeting on Disability and Development (UN HLMDD) in September 2013. As part of which IDDC contributed to the consultations related to the process and background notes for the High Level Meeting.
► IDDC and International Disability Alliance (IDA) developed a joint position paper on the post-MDG agenda, which we have used in our advocacy at all levels, “Make the post-MDG framework inclusive of persons with disabilities”.
► Disability and Sustainable Development, policy brief created in May 2012, outlines the importance of integrating the issues of disability, poverty, and environmental sustainability in the framework of sustainable development.
► IDDC participated in the UN Partnership on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNPRPD) First Partners Meeting of the UN Partnership to Promote the Rights of Persons with Disabilities in March 2012 which was held in New York City, and is represented on the policy board of the UNPRPD.
► IDDC is one of the core group members of the Global Partnership on children with disabilities (GPwcd) promoted by UNICEF. Members of IDDC are in its task groups on Education, Humanitarian action, Nutrition, and Assistive technology.

IDDC ACTIVITY REPORT 2012-20138 Promoting Community Based Rehabilitation
Community Based Rehabilitation (CBR) is a key strategy within community development for the rehabilitation, equalisation of opportunities and social inclusion of all people with disabilities. As such, CBR is a relevant strategy to promote development actions and programmes that are truly inclusive of and accessible to people with disabilities. Increasingly, CBR is perceived as a relevant roadmap to implement the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) in developing countries, which require cost-effective and flexible solutions. Our CBR Task Group aims to promote CBR as an important strategy for Inclusive Development. Working closely with CBR practitioners, we work towards harmonisation of CBR practices, and to ensure that the general orientations entailed in the 2010 CBR Guidelines – of which IDDC is a co-author – can be applied effectively at the field level to impact on the lives of people with disabilities.
Our major achievements
► The Community Based Rehabilitation and the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities as well as the CBR Guidelines (CBR GL) as a Tool for Community Based Inclusive Development were published in 2012/2013 in collaboration with the CBR Task Group as part of the Making Development Inclusive project and are available in English, French, Portuguese, and Spanish.
► Linkages between CBR GL and the UNCRPD was produced by our CBR Task Group and presented at the 1st World CBR Congress in Agra, India in November 2012.
► IDDC is an active contributor in various initiatives aimed at promoting CBR, including the development of the WHO online training course, the WHO CBR monitoring and evaluation manual, and the newly formed CBR Global Network.

IDDC ACTIVITY REPORT 2012-2013
9 Inclusion in HIV and AIDS Policies and ProgrammesThere are many organisations working on HIV and AIDS in the development sector, however, few HIV and AIDS programmes are aware of or address the specific risk factors of persons with disabilities. Furthermore, very few HIV prevention, treatment, care and support services are adequately accessible to women, men and children with different types of disability. The 2011-2015 Strategy of UNAIDS recognises for the first time the necessity to overcome the “historic neglect of HIV prevention and support to persons with disabilities”. In doing so, our HIV&AIDS and Disability Task Group works to better integrate issues of disability into HIV and AIDS policies and programming as well as into the work of organisations and other development agencies implementing HIV and AIDS initiatives.

Our major achievements ► In July 2012, at the 19th International AIDS Conference held in Washington DC, IDDC secured a Disability Networking Zone providing information on the importance of the inclusion of persons with disabilities in HIV and AIDS work including presentations by IDDC members CBM and HI. Furthermore, HI was invited to present during another workshop on HIV, disability and rights, organised by the Canadian Working Group on Rehabilitation and HIV and UNAIDS.
► The HIV and AIDS and Disability Task Group released a policy briefing in June 2012 on HIV and AIDS and Disability.
► In February 2013, the HIV and AIDS Disability Task Group participated in an e-consultation organised by UNAIDS to ensure that disability is included in discussions on AIDS and the Post-2015 development agenda.
► The HIV and AIDS Disability Task Group submitted a letter in February 2013 to the South African Country Coordinating Mechanism (CCM) for the Global Fund, outlining the vulnerability of persons with disabilities to HIV and AIDS. This was in response to the South African CCM’s decision to leave out persons with disabilities as a key population within their revised response to the HIV pandemic in South Africa.
► Submission of an oral statement on the inclusion of women and girls with disabilities in the global prevention of and response to violence against women at the 56th session on the status of women on the elimination of all forms of violence against women in March 2013.
IDDC ACTIVITY REPORT 2012-201310 The Right to Education for Children with Disabilities
Research suggests that disability is one of the most significant factors which cause exclusion from school and marginalisation. The continued marginalisation of persons with disabilities in all levels of education and development will seriously hinder reaching the internationally agreed goals of Education For All (EFA) - lead by UNESCO - and the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Our Inclusive Education Task Group (IE TG) works on influencing policies and debate and sharing information and knowledge around quality education for children and youth with disabilities. Our key priority in 2012-2013 has been quality education, amongst other through promoting the need for teacher training. Additionally, the need to strengthen data collection on children with disabilities has been highlighted in our advocacy work. However, an important point has been made, that waiting for reliable data or data collection to start, is no excuse for not including the children in school already.

IDDC ACTIVITY REPORT 2012-2013
11Our major achievements ► IDDC’s IE TG member organisations participated in the 2013 Global Action Week of the Global Campaign for Education (GCE) in April. The theme of 2013 was “Every Child Needs a Teacher” and IDDC’s publications for the Action Week stress the importance of ensuring that all teachers are trained to be inclusive and the importance of training and supporting more teachers with disabilities.
► The “Every Child Needs a Teacher” leaflet produced by IDDC and designed jointly with EENET has been translated into several languages such as Arabic, French, German, Spanish, and English and has already been widely distributed.
► Members of the IE TG were successful in convincing the Global Campaign for Education to keep “disability” high on the agenda and to focus the Global Action Week in 2014 on “Disability and Inclusive Education”.
► To respond to the various lobbying efforts of the Task Group a policy briefing document was produced: “Teachers for All: Inclusive Teaching for Children with Disabilities”. This elaborates on the five key points for developing inclusive teachers/teaching that were presented in the leaflet. Among others, the paper has generated an invitation to collaborate from UNESCO’s “International task force on teachers for Education for All”.
► The “Quality inclusive education – to end exclusion” poster was revised. The text was simplified and updated, and new photos added, along with a more attractive design.
► Engaging with key actors for education and development (World Bank, Global Partner-ship for Education (GPE)), and Global Partnership on Children with Disabilities (GPcwd). In dialogue with the World Bank the IE TG focused on issues and concerns regarding the exclusion of children with disabilities from some of the World Bank’s strategies and reports in education and sought collaboration to facilitate in improving the World Bank’s inclusion of persons with disabilities. The IE TG urged the GPE to include disability indicators and to rate the existing disability indicators higher in the GPE’s “Strategic Plan Indicators Prioritisation”. IE TG influenced the UNICEF-hosted GPcwd ensuring the its education thematic group developed a strong paper to submit to the UN HLMDD in September 2013.
► IDDC members in Norway were successful in convincing the GCE Norway to make “Disability and Education” an important topic. The Norwegian GCE coalition has had frequent meetings with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Norad and the Ministry of Education and Research, where inclusion of children with disability in education has been prioritised. The Norwegian GCE coalition also met with ex Prime Minister Kjell Magne Bondevik, who sits on the GCE High level panel along with Gordon Brown.
IDDC ACTIVITY REPORT 2012-201312 Improving the Livelihoods of Persons with Disabilities
Access to a decent livelihood is a key issue for persons with disabilities, and we advocate for the inclusion of persons with disabilities in livelihood services developing countries. Our Livelihood Task Group aims to promote the right to livelihood opportunities through decent and productive work or social protection mechanisms and accessible financial services.

Our major achievements
► IDDC organised a joint high level panel, Making Finance Work for Inclusive Development, during the 2012 European Development Days. In addition to IDDC the panel was sponsored by the European Microfinance Platform (e-MFP), United Nations Capital Development Fund (UNCDF), and the International Finance Corporation (IFC) from the World Bank group. The High Level Panel showcased how finance can work for inclusive development, and highlighted innovative approaches to tackle the needs of specific vulnerable groups and sectors of society in developing countries. Panelists made specific policy recommendations on what further actions are needed to close the financial inclusion gap.
► In June 2012 IDDC members of the Livelihood Task Group attended a meeting with Magdalena Sepulveda, the UN Special Rapporteur for Extreme Poverty and Human Rights, during the Integrating the Human Rights Based Approach in Social Protection Programmes.
► The Livelihood Task Group produced a briefing on Making Mainstream Finance Services Accessible. The briefing focuses on Article 27 of the CRPD, recognising the right to work and employment for persons with disabilities, and provides details on how microfinance institutions can adjust their methods in selecting recipients to become more inclusive and how they can make architectural changes to ensure accessibility.
► IDDC welcomed the EU’s commitment to support national programmes in the creation of job opportunities for marginalised groups, such as persons with disabilities included in the European Commision’s publication, Communication On Social Protection in European Union Development Cooperation.

13 Inclusive Emergency ResponseAccess to humanitarian relief during conflicts and emergencies is a key issue for persons with disabilities. Members of the Conflict and Emergency Task Group work on both humanitarian action and Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR).
Our major achievements
► IDDC members, CBM and Handicap International are founding members of the Disability Inclusive DRR Network. Through this network we supported persons with disabilities from partner countries to participate in the Global Platform for Disaster Risk Reduction organised by the United Nations Office on Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR); this advocacy initiative through the Disability Inclusive DRR Network has resulted in high level endorsement of disability inclusive DRR: “Even the best early warning systems and preparedness efforts to evacuate populations in danger do not address fully the diversity of disabilities that we have in our societies. The only way to address this is to ensure that persons with disabilities are involved in the design and planning of the systems that are designed to protect the safety of the population in all countries.” Margareta Wahlström, Special Representative for UNISDR at the Conference of State parties to the CRPD in June 2013
► The IDDC Conflict and Emergency Task Group coordinator, Valerie Scherrer, also leads the UNICEF Global Partnership on Children with Disabilities task force on humanitarian action, bringing IDDC into direct collaboration with a range of allies to promote disability inclusive DRR and humanitarian action.

IDDC ACTIVITY REPORT 2012-2013
IDDC ACTIVITY REPORT 2012-2013
15How We WorkIDDC is a global consortium of disability and development NGOs, mainstream development NGOs, and disabled people’s organisations (DPOs) supporting disability and development work in more than 100 countries around the world. IDDC currently consists of 25 members.
Aim of IDDCTo promote inclusive development internationally, with a special focus on promoting the full and effective enjoyment of human rights by all persons with disabilities living in economically poor communities in lower and middle-income countries.
Main Objectives of IDDC ► To promote the inclusion of the disability dimension, as well as appropriate disability-specific approaches, in all development policy and practice.
► To improve the practice of the member organisations by collaborating and sharing experience about policy and practice.
► To support the exchange of information and knowledge about inclusive development, especially between people and organisations in economically poorer countries, by the wide distribution of information.
Core Values and Principles of IDDCIDDC is committed to its values and principles, which uphold inclusive ways of working, both internally and in all its development activities, and which seek the participation of all members and both encourage and respect diversity. These are:
► Human rights for all: We believe in the full range of human rights and recognise that the rights of persons with disabilities are frequently violated. We are committed to working for the implementation of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD) and working to ensure our activities are implemented within a human rights framework.
► Inclusion and diversity: We believe in the social model of disability and that inclusion is both a process and a goal.
► Sustainable development and social justice: We believe that development must strive to promote equity, justice and respect for diverse cultures and peoples and that poverty alleviation and inclusion are necessary to promote sustainable development.
► Partnership and collaboration: We believe in working in partnership with persons with disabilities, disabled people’s organisations, networks, families and communities. We believe in supporting the full participation of persons with disabilities in our own organisations and wider society.
IDDC ACTIVITY REPORT 2012-201316 Internal Structure
All IDDC members are encouraged to participate as actively as possible in all activities, working towards the aim of truly inclusive development. This is reflected in the IDDC structure, which consists of:
General Assembly: The General Assembly (GA) is a core activity central to IDDC and every effort is made to ensure maximum attendance by members and to reflect fully IDDC’s values, beliefs and operating principles. The GA meets annually, hosted by a member organisation, to review and plan its work, take constitutional decisions, approve annual budgets and accounts and consider applications for membership.
In 2013, the GA was hosted by Light For the World in Vienna, Austria from the 22-24 May. In 2014, the GA will be hosted by CBM UK in Cambridge, UK.
Board: A third of the IDDC Board is elected every year at the GA and each Board member serves three years. The Board is the main decision-making body in-between the GA meetings. It meets at least twice a year in person and is authorised to decide on all matters of an administrative nature, with the exception of matters which fall under the authority of the GA. The Board reflects the diversity of IDDC and the different competencies of the IDDC member organisations.
Board Composition 2013 – 2014
Chair: Catherine Naughton CBM Vice-Chair: Elisabeth Bruce Norwegian Association of Disabled (NAD) Treasurer: Gareth Roberts Sightsavers Secretary: Jannine Ebenso The Leprosy Mission International Board Members: Tim Wainwright ADD International Johannes Trimmel Light For The World Hervé Bernard Handicap International Federation Berthe Stenberg Atlas Alliance Roland Håkansson MyRight
Secretariat: The Secretariat in Brussels supports the Board and members and facilitates the running of IDDC’s day-to-day business. The Secretariat is not a substitute for participation or activity by members but rather supports facilitates and encourages their increased participation.
Task Groups: As previously detailed, the Task Groups are composed of IDDC members who volunteer to work together on tasks related to a particular theme or project, prioritised within IDDC’s overall strategy. These Task Groups are fundamental to the implementation of IDDC’s objectives; each has a Task Group Coordinator and Co-Coordinator that represents the group. The Task Group members communicate intensively throughout the year and meet face-to-face two or three times a year, while a joint meeting of Task Group Coordinators and the IDDC Board takes place annually.
Development Forum: In order to address overarching development issues, which are important to promote inclusive development and cannot be dealt with at individual Task Group level, a Development Forum was set up at the GA 2011. A conception meeting in January 2012 identified the inclusive post-MDG agenda and the publication of the IDDC Narrative on Inclusive Development as its two main focus areas.

17Focal Points: Focal Points are established for topics and issues, in which members are interested, but the minimum criteria for Task Groups are not fulfilled.
Working Groups: Working Groups are usually temporary groupings, formed with the approval of the GA, the Board or the Development Forum for the fulfilment of particular time-limited or organisational development activities.
In addition we regularly collaborate with Consultants. They are recruited by the Board and maintained as required to assist IDDC to achieve its objectives and/or to fulfil very specific or short-term tasks.
