The overall vision for our work on disability inclusion is an inclusive world where global and national development and humanitarian policies are implemented by governments, and the associated programmes and investments support the realisation of the rights of persons with disabilities.

Prior to Agenda 2030, people with disabilities were largely left behind in the global push by governments, civil society and private sector actors seeking to improve the lives of those who live in poverty. This has resulted in a generation of people with disabilities who have had limited or indeed no direct benefit from or contribution to development and humanitarian frameworks and their subsequent implementing budgets and programmes. The direct impact of this has been increased vulnerability to poverty for people with disabilities and their families.

In line with the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and Agenda 2030, and in support of the aim to leave no-one behind in development and humanitarian responses, the purpose of this role is to identify and pursue opportunities for influencing other governmental, private contractors and development and humanitarian organisations; and to work alongside the disability movement at international, regional and national level to provide advice and capacity development on inclusion to a range of stakeholders.

6. Advocate for the role of people with disabilities and DPOs in all in-country work, along with CBM’s Country Office
7. Broker effective relationships between development partners and DPOs as appropriate
8. Where appropriate, contribute to the capacity strengthening of DPOs to enable them to more effectively influence development partners for disability inclusive development, along with CBM’s Country Office
9. Contribute to monitoring, evaluation and learning activities relating to disability inclusion
