What are DRF priority areas?
• Increasing DPO skills in addressing the CRPD by: • Building More Inclusive Organizations or Partnerships DRF believes that social change requires accountable, inclusive and collaborative effort. Grants in this category are aimed at supporting DPOs to expand their membership or networks to include more marginalized sectors of the disability community, and/or to enter into partnerships which increase their ability to address ratification or implementation of the CRPD. • Internal Capacity Building Advancing an international convention at local or national levels requires both knowledge about legal and policy frameworks and skills to advocate at decision-making levels. Grants in this category are aimed at supporting DPOs to expand the knowledge and skills of their staff and/or membership to advance the CRPD. 2.
