DISABILITY-CHINA: Irish Aid-ILO Partnership Programme, Phase II, 2014-15

PROPEL-China Phase 2 will continue to support capacity building, and policy development in promoting training and employment opportunities for people with intellectual disabilities in particular as well as providing support to the fostering of non-discrimination against people with disabilities in employment and occupation in general, in line with the provisions of the ILO Convention No. 111. The programme will also contribute to strengthened media capacity to report on the rights of persons with disabilities, including those with intellectual disabilities and portray their working capacities. It will expand its collaboration with other UN Agencies in China, local governments and Chinese employers, and increase the outreach and effectiveness of its interventions. Meanwhile, this programme will draw on the lessons learnt and take into account the recommendations of the Mid-term Evaluation of the programme in 2012-2013.
