<p class="MsoNormal">We are excited to announce our partnership with the CBM Australia Inclusion Advisory Group in the launch of the “Disability in GEDSI Analysis: Quick Reference Guide.” This guide aims to address an essential gap that PDF has been advocating
for: ensuring that disability remains a central focus in GEDSI approaches, with the necessary expertise dedicated to the unique challenges faced by people with disabilities.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
This resource is designed to be used by GEDSI advisors, development practitioners, and researchers throughout GEDSI analysis phases to ensure that disability rights and equity are fully incorporated. It highlights critical issues and considerations for individuals
with disabilities who are most at risk of being left behind, reinforcing the importance of inclusive development.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
We strongly encourage the widespread adoption of the “Disability in GEDSI Analysis: Quick Reference Guide,” developed in collaboration with the disability movement.
<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Let’s work together to make sure no one is left behind.<u></u><u></u></p>
