Launch seminar for the report "Peace for all - Inclusion of persons with disabilities in peacebuilding".

MyRight launches an international report on the inclusion of people with disabilities in peacebuilding work.

The study "Peace for all - Inclusion of persons with disabilities in peacebuilding" was conducted between April 2020 and February 2021 with funding from the Folke Bernadotte Academy. The purpose of the study is to gather knowledge and experience about current policies, strategies and methods within different parts of the international community on the inclusion of people with disabilities in peace processes and initiatives. The study also includes in-depth country studies in Sri Lanka and in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH).

Main conclusions and recommendations from the country studies were presented during a digital seminar in collaboration with MDF Training & Consultancy (Sri Lanka) and Lejla Hadzimesic (BiH).
