Charter on Inclusion of Persons with Disabilities in Humanitarian Action
What concrete actions have you taken in support of the initiative.
Humanity & Inclusion (HI) actively promotes the Charter on Inclusion of Persons with Disabilities in Humanitarian Action, in line with international humanitarian law (IHL) and international human rights law (IHRL), in particular the UN Convention on Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD), in partnership with the International Disability Alliance (IDA) and CBM, by generating evidence, building resources and capacity, improving accountability, influencing policies and practices around the topic.
HI is co-chairing the IASC Task Team on Inclusion of Persons with Disabilities in Humanitarian Action, together with IDA and UNICEF, and contributing its technical knowledge. HI is also working with IDA and the Washington Group on Disability Statistics to enhance the availability and use of quality data on persons with disability by humanitarian actors.
HI supported the development of Humanitarian Inclusion Standards for older people and people with disabilities as part of the Age and Disability Capacity Programme (ADCAP), and the drafting of UNICEF Guidance on Including Children with Disabilities in Humanitarian Action.
HI is also strengthening its own internal inclusion policies through an institutional Policy on Disability, Gender and Age.
At the country level, HI has dedicated programs, projects and activities to promote inclusive humanitarian action, influencing strategic planning and humanitarian programming. The programs are implemented in different phases of humanitarian action, both supporting host communities, refugees and internally displaced populations. Examples of projects and activities in South Sudan, DRC, Syria, Yemen, Jordan, Lebanon, Kenya, Myanmar and the Philippines are available in the annex. HI is also involved in DRR to strengthen innovative and traditional early warning system to make sure people with disabilities will be reached.
