challenges:
The funding available through the UNPRDP is quite small. Identifying other joint initiatives would help increase the impact of this work.
success:
4 out of the 5 main PROPEL countries have successfully funded UNPRDP initiatives. This is out of only 20 worldwide.
context:
_
description:
Joint funding initiatives give ILO a good opportunity to strengthen their standing on disability in the UN system. PROPEL has allowed ILO to leverage its position as a disability expert in the UN system, particularly through the UNPRDP. ILO offers a unique value add to the disability sector through linking employment initiatives to non-discrimination at work (including disability). Using these opportunities strengthens ILO’s position to lead on disability.
administrative_issues:
Developing funding opportunities through the UNPRDP or any other initiatives requires the time of the NPCs which is already very stretched. Administering a successfully funded proposal also takes time and administrative resources. For each opportunity, ILO should consider if the funding available is enough to warrant the time devoted to developing a proposal and implementing a project.
