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

PROPEL Vietnam in Phase 2 will aim to promote the access of persons with disabilities to the mainstream vocational training system, though the provision of technical advice and support in finalizing the disability-related provisions in the Vocational Training Law and supporting the revision of training curricula and training materials used in general training centres. It will continue to support the development of the Disability Inclusion (INCLUDE) Support Services increasing their capacities and networks and supporting it to promote the inclusion of persons with disabilities in mainstream programmes and services, including vocational training. Collaboration with the social partners will continue with a view to raising the capacity of governments, social partners and other key stakeholders to collaborate in implementing and/or raising awareness of legislation and policies to promote equality of opportunity in training. Hanoi University Law Faculty will be supported to incorporate disability rights issues into the curriculum of the law faculty and the university more broadly, as well as establishing networks with other universities on disability rights issues in legislation. PROPEL-Viet Nam will collaborate to the extent possible with the ILO Global Business and Disability Network.
