QUESTION
OF THE
MONTH

Each month CIP invites an expert to pose an important question dealing with some aspect of inclusive policies.


We then invite all of you to participate in an on-line written discussion. At the end of the month, our expert will summarize the main results of that discussion in a blog. If you would like to pose a “question of the month” please write to us on our contact page.

THIS MONTH’S QUESTION

Are OPDs responding to the increased demand for their advice in implementing the CRPD? If so, provide examples. If not, what is needed? And how can the voices of children and youth be better incorporated?
