Stereotypes, attitudes and behaviours
Work jointly with others (in alliances and networks) on removing multiple barriers and changing attitudes, while not losing focus of the specific barriers and negative attitudes that people with disabilities face.

Timeframe and/or implementation plan
We will include this within our MoU being currently developed with the International Disability Alliance. We will include this issue within our process to review our Working Practices in the year to May 2019. We will continue to explore our membership strategy and encourage Task Groups to build wider alliances.

Policy, legislation and its implementation
Draw increased attention to and work on changing the legal situation that is creating barriers and reinforcing stigma in many countries.

Timeframe and/or implementation plan
This will form part of the implementation of our Strategy 2018-2021 which calls for increased emphasis on collaboration between members in countries in the Global South.

Stereotypes, attitudes and behaviours
Provide relevant and practical training for removingbarriers and reducing stigma, recognising that one of the most powerful ways of changing attitudes is to realise inclusion in the communities where people live and belong. 

Timeframe and/or implementation plan
This will form part of the implementation of our Strategy 2018-2021 which calls for increased emphasis on collaboration between members in countries in the Global South.
