Objectives of the WB
Poverty reduction & sustainable development.
Priorities embodied in the MDG’s. Reaching the poorest of the poor. The WB estimates that there are
approximately 1.3 billion people living below the poverty line worldwide of which people with disabilities make up around 20% of the poorest of the poor.
![Page 3: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Reaching the poorest
This translates into an estimated 260 million PWD’s living in absolute poverty.
1 in 5 people living on less than a $1 a day have a disability.
To reach the poorest of the poor & most isolated citizens, poverty reduction efforts need to target issues affecting PWD’s & develop policies & programmes aimed at reducing their poverty.

Defining disability Disability is not simply a medical
condition; Rather it results from the physical,
mental, or sensory impairments with culture, social institutions & physical environments.
When a person has an impairment which limits some aspect of their functioning it only becomes a disabling condition if they are confronted with barriers to things like health services, education, employment, public services & infrastructure.
![Page 5: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Barriers…
Could be physical barriers, programmatic barriers, or cultural barriers- stigma & social exclusion.
Disability grows out of an interaction between human functioning & an environment which does not account for different levels of functioning.
![Page 6: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Some facts about disability. It affects not only the person
with a disability, but the family, the community & society at large.
Women & girls with disabilities often face double discrimination.
Aging increases disability.
![Page 7: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
In EAP alone.
WB/WHO estimate approximately 400 million persons with disabilities live in EAP region—comprising almost 2/3 of the world’s disabled population.
![Page 8: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
What we do know?
The number of people with disabilities continues to increase in tandem with growth of the world population.
Factors causing the increase include war & other forms of violence, inadequate medical care, & natural & other natural disasters.
![Page 9: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The profile of disability
Many people with disabilities are poor.
Global estimates indicate that 90% of them are illiterate, 40% are poor & 80 % -live in isolated rural areas. Almost that many live in areas
where the services needed to help them are unavailable.
![Page 10: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Disability in EAP Poverty Dimensions of Disability
Poor more likely to be disabled Disabled more likely to be poor:
Low education/high illiteracy Lower rates of economic activity Poor nutrition Less access to basic services Lower economic status
Families affected PWD likely to not work Another family member = caregiver Cost of healthcare and services higher
![Page 11: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Poverty and Disability For people with disabilities, poverty
is multidimensional. It is characterized by: Material deprivation (low
consumption—food--,poor housing) Low human development (education
and health) Lack of voice and ability to influence
decisions that affect their lives Acute vulnerability to adverse
shocks (illness, economic crises, natural disasters, conflict).
![Page 12: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Poverty cycle.
There is a clear indication that poor people with disabilities are more likely to be caught in a vicious cycle of poverty and disability, each being both a cause & a consequence of the other. People with disabilities face
discrimination, social exclusion & stigma from the moment they are perceived to have an impairment.
![Page 13: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Disability & Poverty.
Poverty is fundamentally an issue of exclusion.
Integrating disability into operations & research does not involve creating a separate agenda to be added on.
It requires innovation & improving what already exists.
![Page 14: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Things are Changing
People with disabilities are increasingly demanding to be part of society.
Policy makers, planners & International agencies have realized that there is no way the MDG’s can be achieved without reaching the most vulnerable groups in society.
It is now universally recognized that there can be no sustainable development without inclusive development.
![Page 15: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Paradigm shift
Moving towards the social model. More integrated It conceptualizes disability as an
interaction between individual limitations & the environment.
In contrast – the medical model which focused on the medical condition of the person.
![Page 16: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The social model
Is rights based It is more cost effective More sustainable & can be used
to combat poverty. Critical for developing countries.
![Page 17: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
WHY BANK INVOLVEMENT?
Link between disability and poverty Poor disproportionately disabled Disabled disproportionately poor
High actual vs. reported prevalence = high cost Percent of population not working High dropout rates, remaining out-of-school
children
Low cost prevention and early interventions = higher productivity
Cost effective inclusion
![Page 18: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Strategies for inclusive development. Must include two aspects.
Prevention Integration
80% of disabilities stem from preventable causes.
(malnutrition, natural disasters, disease, conflict, traffic & other injuries, birth).
![Page 19: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
It requires…
Addressing disability requires a multi-sectoral approach.
Disability is a cross cutting issue & affects all aspects of planning.
It requires innovation & flexibility- stepping outside of the box.
![Page 20: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
How to do we . . . ?.
Achieve inclusive development requires the application of three principles as well as the general principles found in a new UN Human Rights Convention being developed for people with disabilities.
![Page 21: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
The Three Principles
Should be seen not only as goals and objectives, but as the processes through which inclusive development for people with disabilities is achieved:
![Page 22: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
1. Access People with disabilities
should enjoy access to the built environment, transportation, information & communications,
so that they may be full participants in all aspects of life, & fully enjoy the full range of human rights.
![Page 23: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
2. Equity People with disabilities should
enjoy equitable access to the benefits resulting from development activities.
These activities should promote non-discrimination & equal opportunities for people with disabilities to participate in every facet of life: civil, political, economic, social & cultural.
![Page 24: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
3. Inclusion People with disabilities should
be accepted as equal partners in development, & be included as full participants in all development activities.
People with disabilities should be part of the PRSP consultations.
In the CAS.
![Page 25: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Inclusion essential for success Strengthening the disability policy
focus of PRSP’s is essential to the success of their strategies for 2 reasons.
1. Disability is a significant factor of extreme poverty in developing countries.
2. Unless people with disabilities are included in the PRSP’s - it is unlikely that most of the MDGs will be met.
![Page 26: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Real Life
It will not happen over night. Need to have real people involved. This a complex set of concepts and
requires a range of different actors. While it is complex it is not
insurmountable & there already a number of good practices.
We need to work with DPO’s & share knowledge.
![Page 27: Training on Inclusive Development. Charlotte McClain-Nhlapo Disability Advisor EAP World Bank 11/12 July 2006](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649f455503460f94c66a9f/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Finally, the rationale for including people with disabilities in development projects is not only a moral obligation but a legally binding imperative.
