PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Developing Countries: Disability (9 March 2016)
Question Asked
Asked by:
Mike Kane (Labour)
Answer
DFID follows a ‘twin-track’ approach to disability inclusion. This means we aim to attach priority to disability in all our policies and programmes as well as supporting disability-targeted programmes. Last year we conducted a review of our first year of implementing the Disability Framework. This involved working closely with civil society partners and our stakeholders to invite their assessment of our progress and to analyse the information we received, assessing staff capability on disability inclusion and gathering feedback from DFID country offices and central teams on how they had delivered on Framework commitments.
We will consider conducting a similar approach moving forward.
