University College Dublin and Dóchas Research Report
This 2020 report presents an analysis of practices and experiences of a sample of disability focused and mainstream INGOs based in Ireland, with regards to responding to the needs of persons with disabilities. It addresses the question of how INGOs, particularly mainstream INGOs, perceive their own role in mainstreaming disability in development and humanitarian practice. The report explores the achievements, and challenges reported by key informants and investigates how INGOs are influenced in their work on disability by national and international development objectives.
