Senior leadership
challenges:
In the survey conducted for the evaluation, leadership was easily the most picked category (almost 50%) for the area the ILO has been least successful in creating change related to disability inclusion. Interviews suggested that this was not linked to the very senior leadership of the ILO but more the departmental head and regional and country management level. The
success:
Examples of good practices are available, most notably in the leadership of ROAS and the Country Office for Zambia, Malawi, and Mozambique had encouraged building disability inclusion into action plans. The successes from the departments who are the UNDIS indicator custodians also show importance of commitment from leadership.
context:
Although the commitments made by the senior leadership of the ILO have been important for the implementation of the strategy, ILO officials indicated they believe stronger leadership at different levels of the Office could be shown. Without the involvement of this level of management, the accountability for achieving the goals of the strategy will be unclear and ultimately the resources not made available.

Leadership at all levels is required to further disability mainstreaming across the organisation.
administrative_issues:
Will require staff time and commitment to monitoring success of implementing the next strategy.
