Making inclusion operational : legal and institutional resources for World Bank Staff on the inclusion of disability issues in investment projects
Guernsey, Katherine | Ninio, Alberto | Nicoli, Marco
This working paper provides information to assist World Bank staff in including disability in the development agenda and activities of the Bank. This paper is intended to accompany the World Bank's online Disability Knowledge Kit.* It draws heavily on those sections of the Kit that are primarily intended for use by Task Team Leaders and legal staff who provide support to investment lending projects. It is hoped that the paper will be of particular assistance to those who may have limited or infrequent access to the online kit by virtue of travel or other factors. In addition to explanatory comments that address foundational disability contexts, principles, trends and the relevance of disability issues at different stages of a typical project cycle, this paper also includes three annexes: 1) a glossary of terms, which defines many of the more technical and disability specific terms used in this paper; 2) checklists that address specific actions that Bank staff can take to promote inclusive development for people with disabilities at various stages of the project cycle; and 3) additional resources that provide further tools and information on inclusive development.
