Commit resources to support strengthened disability data
EDF published in March 2018 its 2nd Human Rights Report on the SDGs in Europe. With this report, we want to raise awareness about the importance of collecting stronger data on disability, with for instance the use of the Washington Group Set of Questions. We want our members to be more knowledgeable so they are equipped for national advocacy around reliable data disaggregated by disability.
Timeframe and/or implementation plan
EDF will organise a conference on data and statistics in November 2018, in Vienna to raise awareness among our members. We will discuss on how to adopt a better advocacy strategy to collect quality and reliable data disaggregated by disability in accordance with SDG 17.18. and article 31 of the CRPD.
