Development of Sensitization Packages on Disability Inclusion - Nepal

Donor: UNDP • Timeframe: May – Sep. 2021

Provision of Services for Development of Sensitization Packages on Disability Inclusive Human Resources and Operations and Monitoring and Evaluation for United Nations (UN) Nepal

IDP worked with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Resident Coordinator’s Office (RCO) and Disability Inclusion Task Team in Nepal to design and conduct sensitization training sessions on disability-inclusive monitoring and evaluation and human resourcing and procurement for Nepal’s entire UN Country Team (UNCT). Our sessions were targeted to human resource and monitoring and evaluation professionals and were based on the United Nations Disability Strategy (UNDIS) and relevant international guiding practices. In addition to these trainings, we developed an assessment tool to gauge the impact of the sessions six months after implementation.

Project Highlights

  • Developed sensitization packages, including a facilitator’s guide and related assessment tool with components on procurement and human resources and monitoring and evaluation for UNCT Nepal staff.
  • Delivered progressive sessions on each thematic area for UN personnel.
  • Conducted a session for select disability-inclusion focal points to allow trainees to take the sensitization sessions as part of regular annual trainings for new UN personnel.
  • Developing an assessment tool to gauge the impact of the sessions six months after its implementation.
