In line with the growing commitment of Arab countries to the social inclusion of persons with disabilities and to empower them to live independently and participate fully in all aspects of life, ESCWA organized two workshops on 3 September in Tunis, in collaboration with the Ministry of Social Affairs and the International Center for the Advancement of Persons with Disabilities.
The first workshop focused on the soft launch of the digital platform for disability resource materials, during which the pilot version and its core components were presented. Stakeholders provided feedback and agreed on a clear timeline for its official launch.
The second workshop was dedicated to validating the National Disability Training Strategy in Tunisia, marking a step towards its adoption and implementation. Participants reviewed the final draft, discussed proposed implementation modalities, and agreed on governance mechanisms, financing options, and approaches to monitoring and evaluation.
