Abstract
Why is there a need for international aid policies to better
embed disability? What can policy actors do to meet this need?
This policy brief is willing to support policy actors engaged
with international aid policies in agencies delivering aid (such
as bilateral governmental and multilateral agencies), and it
seeks to answer these questions. It first provides essential data
on why disability matters in policy-making, and in international
aid policies. Second, it gives a concise overview of approaches
to disability throughout history. Then it mentions the principal
current international framework and refers to the state of the art in
aid policies. Finally, it gives practical suggestions for improvement
by outlining a number of actions that could be embedded in
organisations working in international aid in order to include
disability in their framework.
