action_plan:

The issue of disability will be addressed within the end-line research of the Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme. The Washington Questions will be applied to assess the extent to which return migrants from the fishing and seafood processing sectors experience disability as a result of their employment. In addition, the programme will work in collaboration with the TRIANGLE in ASEAN and Safe and Fair programmes to support referral of persons with disabilities to appropriate services, including legal assistance for discrimination. The work will be done in collaboration with the ASEAN Disability Forum, which is a network of organizations made up of and led by people with disabilities.

title:

6. Conduct research on experiences of persons with disabilities at different stages of migration cycle. There is a dearth of information on disability and migration. Increase research into the number of persons with disabilities migrating, the barriers they face in the migration cycle, for experiences of migrants who have family members with disabilities, and how migrants who acquire disabilities reintegrate on return, would help identify programming options. This may be outside the scope of this programme but should be considered in the next phase or in new projects when they are developed. In this specific programme, adding questions on disability into the endline survey can provide some initial data.
