Abstract / Indice dei contenuti
This regional technical assistance (TA) aims to raise awareness of Asian Development Bank (ADB) staff and the developing member countries (DMCs) of the importance of disability as a development issue.
The TA will provide guidance on how to (i) improve ADB’s responsiveness to the needs, concerns, and potential of people with disabilities and (ii) include them when operationalizing ADB’s poverty reduction strategy.
The scope, cost estimates, and implementation arrangements of the TA reflect the findings of the July 2000 Fact-Finding Mission to Cambodia, India, and the Philippines.
