recommendations:

title:

1. Ensure the ILO’s planned actions on disability inclusion are costed and accompanied by a budget. This includes: • Budget developed with next multi-annual Strategy and the funding necessary for operational activities being costed and budget identified; • Establish a centralized budget for accessibility issues, separate from the Reasonable Accommodation Reserve; • A monitoring mechanism should be developed to track actual identification and use of expenditure proposed in the budget; • Increase attention to ensuring disability inclusive outcomes and indicators in DWCPs and CPOs. This will encourage greater attention to ensuring disability inclusive projects are developed and outreach to donors, as well as encouraging tripartite constituents to ask for technical support on disability inclusion; • Launch an innovation competition for departments, branches, country offices etc to apply for small scale funding for innovative ideas and pilot projects; • Provide a budget for the ERG on Disability Inclusion annual workplan, including conducting outreach and advocacy activities

action_plan:

This recommendation will be addressed within the framework of the new ILO Disability Inclusion Strategy (2024-2027).

comments:

The Office will develop a coordinated approach to maximizing resource allocations from all funding sources available to the Office for disability inclusion. Issues such as establishing a centralized budget and improving resource identification and tracking will be discussed with relevant Departments in preparing the ILO’s new Disability Inclusion Strategy (2024-2027). This work will also be informed by similar discussions taking place amongst agencies at the UN level. Initial improvements to the disability tag are currently being implemented, with a view to improving the tracking system from 2026 onwards. The Office will more actively engage with Regional Directors, as part of a holistic approach to increasing disability-inclusive outcomes and indicators in DWCPs and other country programming instruments; this will also benefit from regional applications of the ILO Disability Inclusion Policy/Strategy and the UN Disability Inclusion Strategy.
