CBM has recently published a manual on including Persons with Disabilities in development projects as part of 'Mainstreaming Disability in Development Cooperation,' a project funded by the European Commission. The purpose of the manual is to give guidance and practical tools to EC operational staff to include a disability perspective in what is known as Project Cycle Management.

The manual aims to support the inclusion of the perspectives of Persons with Disabilities throughout the Project Management Cycle, from programming through to evaluation. It contains examples of projects which include the perspectives of Persons with Disabilities, many of which are financed by the EC in partnership with NGOs. The manual will be accompanied by a web-based toolbox, which will be available in September.

More information on the project Make Development Inclusive can be found online at www.make-development-inclusive.org.
