description:

The absence of a coordinating steering body is a serious challenge: The national management of the portfolio of disability in general and vocational rehabilitation and employment in particular require a horizontal mechanism for coordination and follow-up, as progress in this area requires the involvement of several ministries and public institutions as well as civil society. The failure of the high committee of disability and its related sub-committees, including the sub-committee on vocational rehabilitation and employment, has created a real vacuum in terms of coordination and monitoring. Therefore, two options are suggested to overcome this vacuum: either the high national committee and its related sub-committees should be reinforced and given more dynamism through a decree from the Sultan’s office, or a national council for disability should be established to function as a coordinating/executive horizontal body.
