From 11 to 16 February 2018, the International Disability Alliance (IDA), in partnership with the International Disability and Development Consortium (IDDC), TCI Asia, DRAF and the Art 11 Project - Inclusive Humanitarian Action for Persons with Disabilities (IDA, CBM and HI), held the Training of Trainers (ToT) Module A in the framework of the Bridge CRPD-SDGs Training Initiative. The training was funded by the Ford Foundation and the IDA Catalyst Project funded by the UK Department for International Development (DFID).
This ToT Module A embodied an increased inclusion of underrepresented groups, with first-time trainees with autism and albinism, and from indigenous groups, with a great presence of women with disabilities. Original in its focus, this Module A placed a particular emphasis on Article 11 of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) on Situations of Risk and Humanitarian Emergencies.
