This report is an attempt to assess the
validity of poverty reduction strategies as an effective
tool to manage poverty brought about by disability, by
reviewing the disability policy content of poverty reduction
strategy papers. In doing so, the report focuses on whether
the specific poverty dimensions of disabled persons are
acknowledged and the critical interventions for improving
the economic and social integration of disabled persons are
included in poverty reduction strategy papers. There is a
wide consensus that disabled persons, being
disproportionately poor, are among the population groups
that should benefit from the poverty reduction programs of
poverty reduction strategy papers. The issue, however, is
whether they are de facto excluded from benefiting from
current poverty reduction strategies. Poverty reduction
strategy papers do not meet the needs of disabled persons
because they are based on a limited social protection policy
that conveys a wrong impression about the abilities and
aspirations of the majority of disabled persons.
Furthermore, they do not reflect the basic principles of the
modern approach to disability adopted by the United Nations.
Progress across regions and in developing the various
components of the disability strategy has remained uneven.
Partly for historical and institutional reasons related to
the importance of pensions and transfers for the government
budget, disability issues have received more attention among
Eastern European countries. They have received the least
attention in the Africa region. |
