  • Charter on Inclusion of Persons with Disabilities in Humanitarian Action

    What concrete actions have you taken in support of the initiative.

    CBM's humanitarian activities are aligned with United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD), Humanitarian Inclusion Standards (HIS) and therefore are upholding the commitments of the charter. At project implementation level, CBM partners with Disabled People's Organisations (DPOs) to ensure that persons with disabilities are included from assessment, to design, to implementation and evaluation. CBM actively supports persons with disabilites and DPO members to engage with partners of various clusters to promote inclusive response. To that end, CBM, along with it partners provides technical support to mainstream agencies on inclusive humanitarian action. CBM has developed guidelines such as All under one roof, 16 minimum requirements for accessible shelters and have been part of development of Humanitarian Inclusion Standards. CBM uses these standards in its own programmes. 

    CBM has been actively promoting the use of this charter as a tool to implement Article 11 of UNCRPD in its global consortium project with Handicap International (HI) and International Disability Alliance (IDA).
