Disabled people key partners in efforts for sustainable development in Việt Nam: UN
The United Nations launched a joint project to ensure better rights for people with disabilities on Wednesday, aiming to implement the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) through effective collaboration.
The UN joint project will help with capacity-building activities and collaboration on the essential ‘pre-conditions’ that are indispensable for addressing the needs and opportunities of people with disabilities in public policymaking and programming across all sectors.
In the next two years, UNDP, UNFPA and UNICEF as partner agencies, will work towards building the capacity of organisations of persons with disabilities and policymakers on CRPD-compliant policy making and implementation.
