![]() It will produce a research study on the status quo and develop a training curriculum to support the inclusive implementation of the Sendai framework at international and national level. the project will encourage collaboration amongst key actors to promote and advance the inclusive disaster risk reduction agenda and to position it at the centre of international debate. Supporting advocacy efforts before, during and after regional and global DRR platforms is one of the main goals of the project at this level. IDA is leading the project implementation at the global level. It brings together key actors from the international to the community level to generate knowledge, develop capacity and explore best practice with regards to the implementation of the Sendai Framework (in particular Priority 4 and the commitment to inclusion) and the implementation of the IASC Guidelines on the Inclusion of Persons with Disabilities in Humanitarian Action. ![]() The vision of the project is to foster inclusive approaches to disaster risk reduction and humanitarian action. The project has a total budget of € 3,174,425.06 and is funded by Germany Federal Foreign Office (FFO). The project duration is 32 months (May 2021 till December 2023). IDA partners in this project include Arbeiter-Samariter-Bund (ASB), Malteser International (MI), Christoffel Blindenmission (CBM), and Centre for Disability in Development (CDD). To foster change and to help improve this situation, IDA has joint several stakeholders for the project "Putting Persons with Disabilities at the Centre of Humanitarian Preparedness and Response: building and strengthening capacity in inclusive humanitarian action and inclusive disaster preparedness through the active inclusion of persons with disabilities." Overall, people with disability are a lot more likely to be exposed to disproportionate risks and to receive insufficient or inappropriate assistance and support in times of crisis. Moreover, once evacuated, people with disabilities may have a difficult time accessing shelters and safe spaces as a consequence of environmental, institutional and attitudinal barriers they may face. They are too often excluded from preparedness activities, and invisible when it comes to community and risk mapping or evacuation planning. Persons with disabilities and other at-risk groups are often forgotten in disaster preparedness and left behind when disaster strikes. Disasters do not affect all people equally. ![]()
