    Toward Gender Equality and Addressing Gender-Based Violence in the IASC Guidelines on Inclusion of Persons with Disabilities in Humanitarian Action

    At least 70 million people are currently displaced as a result of persecution, conflict, or violence. As many as 14 million of them are persons with disabilities. Globally, one in five women has a disability. During the 2016 World Humanitarian Summit, the Charter on Inclusion of Persons with Disabilities in Humanitarian Action was endorsed by more than 200 humanitarian and human rights networks and organizations, networks and/or organizations of persons with disabilities, UN agencies, and governments. The Charter includes a recommendation to develop “guidelines supporting humanitarian actors to improve inclusion of persons with disabilities in emergency preparedness and responses.” The IASC Guidelines on Inclusion of Persons with Disabilities in Humanitarian Action (the Guidelines) were finalized after three years of extensive consultations with multiple stakeholders and recently endorsed by the Inter-Agency Standing Committee. The participation and empowerment of women and girls with disabilities and their representative organizations is critical to ensuring that disability inclusion is realized in humanitarian action. The Women’s Refugee Commission worked with a number of humanitarian stakeholders, including organizations of women with disabilities, to integrate gender and GBV considerations throughout the Guidelines. This issue brief provides an overview of the Guidelines and more detailed information on the chapter on GBV. In line with IASC guidance, disability inclusion should be reflected in all global GBV guidance and standards.

    Helping Ensure Age, Gender, and Diversity Inclusive Pledges and Good Practices for the Global Refugee Forum


    Ahead of the Global Refugee Forum (GRF) taking place in Geneva from 17 to 18 December 2018, WRC, together with CARE International, Plan International, and the UNSW Forced Migration Research Network, has developed a "tip sheet" to help stakeholders ensure their pledges, contributions, and good practices for the first GRF are more effective and put “people first” by incorporating age, gender, and diversity, including disability (AGD), considerations.

    The guidance has been endorsed by more than 20 organizations including:
    ACT Alliance, Act for Peace, AMES Australia, Asia Pacific Refugee Rights Network (APRRN), Australian National Committee on Refugee Women (ANCORW), CARE International, Danish Refugee Council (DRC), INTERSOS, International Rescue Committee (IRC), Jesuit Refugee Service Australia, Justice Centre Hong Kong, Multicultural Youth Advocacy Network Australia (MYAN), National Union of Women with Disabilities of Uganda (NUWODU), PHALS from Bangladesh, PLAN International, Settlement Services International (SSI), Townsville Multicultural Support Group Inc.

    Leaving No One Behind: Ensuring gender equality and the protection and empowerment of women and girls with disabilities in humanitarian action

    Our project contributing to the Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC) Task Team developing Global Guidelines on Inclusion of Persons with Disabilities in Humanitarian Action (IASC Disability Guidelines), supports humanitarian stakeholders to work towards gender equality and to address the protection and empowerment of women and girls with disabilities by:

    • ensuring gender is mainstreamed across the IASC Guidelines in consultation with humanitarian stakeholders;
    • drafting and piloting sector-specific guidance for gender-based violence (GBV) prevention and response actors on disability inclusion;
    • developing and delivering training packages to support the rollout and implementation of the IASC Guidelines.

    Disability Inclusion in Child Protection and Gender-Based Violence Programs

    The following guidance notes and tools are a result of a partnership project between the Women’s Refugee Commission (WRC) and UNICEF Lebanon entitled "Strengthening Child Protection and Gender-based Violence Prevention and Response for Women, Children, and Youth with Disabilities." The overall goal of the project is to improve violence prevention and response programming for at-risk groups of women, girls, and boys with disabilities. It builds on existing initiatives of gender-based violence (GBV) and child protection (CP) actors to systematically advance disability inclusion across the CP and GBV prevention and response sectors in Lebanon.

    Beirut I: Strengthening Peer Networks for Refugees with Disabilities

    Interventions for Strengthening GBV Prevention and Response for Urban Refugees

    Previous research has demonstrated that refugees with intellectual disabilities living in urban areas face added risks of violence, including GBV, due to the breakdown in protective peer networks, and exclusion activities which might confer access to age- and gender-appropriate information and education. Throughout 2015 and 2016, the WRC partnered with a local organization called the Lebanese Association for Self-Advocacy (LASA) to strengthen protective peer networks for refugees with disabilities living in Beirut. Sessions supported refugees with disabilities living in Beirut to reflect on safety issues, including how these might be different for women, men, girls and boys with disabilities, as well as how these might relate to nationality/country of origin. These sessions also helped to strengthen their protective peer networks in the community.
