UN Partnership for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities 2019-2026 - UN Partnership for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities - Ukraina UN Partnership for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities 2019-2026 The United Nations Partnership on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNPRPD) has applied to Sida for funding of 27 500 000 SEK annually to develop and strengthen its work to support the full implementation of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) by facilitating policy dialogue, coalition-building and capacity-development at country, regional and global level. 

UNPRPD is a collaborative effort that brings together UN entities, governments, disabled people’s organizations and the broader civil society to advance disability rights around the world. In doing so, it leverages the comparative advantage of multiple stakeholders to advance the Agenda 2030 and the principle of leaving no one behind by promoting disability inclusive development. The UNPRPD is supported by the UNPRPD Fund, a Multi-Donor Trust Fund (MDTF) established to mobilize resources for the Partnership. The Fund started in 2011 and its current end date is May 31st 2026, which can be extended by decision of the Policy Board of the UNPRPD.

UNPRPD pursues two results: (1) to support coalition-building and capacity development at country level to facilitate the full implementation of the CRPD; and (2) to improve the mainstreaming of a disability rights perspective into the core business of participating UN organizations. The majority of UNPRPD funds go towards the promotion of country-level joint programs in which participating UN organizations engage in collaborative multi-stakeholder efforts to trigger systemic change. Given its position as a UN partnership, the UNPRPD is well positioned to strengthen disability inclusion within the UN System and has a mandate to support the implementation of the United Nations Disability Inclusion Strategy that was adopted by the Secretary General of the United Nations in 2019. 

The total budget of the intervention is 55 000 000 SEK that will be disbursed annually (2019 and 2020) to the UNDP Multi-Partner Trust Fund Office, that administers the UNPRPD MDTF and builds on the experience developed by the MPTF Office in managing multiple Multi-Partner Trust Funds and joint programs around the world. Förenta Nationernas partnerskap för rättigheter för personer med funktionsnedsättning (UNPRPD) har ansökt om ett årligt stöd från Sida på 27 500 000 SEK för att utveckla och stärka sitt arbete med att främja genomförandet av konventionen om rättigheter för personer med funktionsnedsättning (CRPD) genom möjliggörande av politisk dialog, skapandet av samarbeten och kapacitetsutveckling på nationell, regional och global nivå.

UNPRPD är ett samarbete som sammanför FN-organisationer, regeringar, organisationer för personer med funktionsnedsättning och det bredare civila samhället för att främja rättigheter för personer med funktionsnedsättning runt om i världen. På så vis utnyttjas den komparativa fördelen som skapas när flera intressenter samarbetar för att främja genomförandet av Agenda 2030 och principen att inte lämna någon utanför genom att främja integrering av funktionshinderperspektivet. Genomförandet av UNPRPD:s arbete stöds av UNPRPD-fonden - en "Multi-Donor Trust Fund" (MDTF) som inrättats för att mobilisera resurser för partnerskapet. Fonden startade 2011 och nuvarande slutdatum är 31 maj 2026, vilket kan förlängas genom beslut av UNPRPD:s styrelse (Policy Board).

UNPRPD verkar för att uppnå två resultat: (1) stödjande av skapande av samarbeten och kapacitetsutveckling på nationell nivå för att främja implementeringen av CRPD; och (2) att förbättra integreringen av funktionshinderperspektiv i kärnverksamheten av de FN-organisationer som ingår i UNPRPD. Huvuddelen av medlen från UNPRPD MDTF går till program på nationell nivå där FN-organisationer deltar i samarbete med flera intressenter för att skapa förutsättningar för systemförändring. Eftersom det är ett FN-partnerskap är UNPRPD väl positionerat för att stärka integrering av funktionshinderperspektiv i FN-systemet och har ett mandat att stödja genomförandet av FN:s strategi för integrering av funktionshinderperspektivet (UN-DIS) som antogs av FN:s generalsekreterare 2019.

Insatsens totala budget är 55 000 000 SEK och kommer att betalas ut årligen (2019 och 2020) till UNDP Multi-Partner Trust Fund Office som administrerar UNPRPD MDTF och som har erfarenhet av hantering av flera "Multi-Partner Trust Funds" och program runt om i världen. The mission of the UN Partnership on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNPRPD) is to support countries to accelerate the implementation of the CRPD and disability inclusive SDGs for all persons with disabilities with the full involvement of Organizations of People with Disability (ODPs).

Its vision is that the rights of all persons with disabilities are fully respected, protected and fulfilled, and that all persons with disabilities fully and equitably participate in society. 

The overall objective of UNPRPD is to: Reduce the inequality and exclusion for all persons with disabilities within and across countries. 

The UNPRPD will achieve its mission by supporting countries to design, implement and reform national policies, plans, budgets, programs and services with the meaningful participation of OPDs so that they comply with the CRPD and disability inclusive SDGs. 

This represents UNPRPDs Principal Outcome, which is applied through a twin-track approach, i.e., a combination of targeted disability-specific and disability-mainstreaming interventions. In addition, UNPRPD applies its cross-cutting approaches across all of its work to ensure the inclusion of marginalized and underrepresented groups of persons with disabilities, address gender inequality and enable the full and effective participation of persons with disabilities and their representative organizations through its joint programs, knowledge management and capacity building efforts. 

UNPRPDs Principal Outcome can be further broken down into three key interventions or Intermediate Outcomes: 

National stakeholders are equipped with the knowledge and practical tools for disability inclusive policies and systems. 
Gaps in achieving the essential building blocks or preconditions of CRPD implementation (gender equality, data, accessibility, support services, etc.) are addressed.
National development plans and monitoring processes include disability mainstreaming. 

In order to ensure effective implementation/operationalization of above, in the UNPRPD strategic plan, the following is required: 

Generation of catalytic funding for national and multi-country joint programming on disability inclusion (includes three specific workstreams).
Generation of knowledge management and lessons learned. 
Implementation of context-relevant capacity building to support inclusive systems and policies.
