  2. CBR Guidelines • These Guidelines are intended to help CBR managers develop high quality programmes. • Contain ideas and examples, to promote and illustrate up-to-date, practical strategies for community based-rehabilitation and community-based inclusive development

  3. CBR Guidelines • The Guidelines are inspired by the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD). • CBR programmes are guided by the general principles declared in Article 3 of the Convention.

  4. UN CRPD Article 3 – General Principles (1/2) • (a) Respect for inherent dignity, individual autonomy including the freedom to make one’s own choices, and independence of persons; • (b) Non-discrimination; • (c) Full and effective participation and inclusion in society; • (d) Respect for difference and acceptance of persons with disabilities as part of human diversity and humanity;

  5. UN CRPD Article 3 – General Principles (2/2) • (e) Equality of opportunity; • (f) Accessibility; • (g) Equality between men and women; • (h) Respect for the evolving capacities of children with disabilities and respect for the right of children with disabilities to preserve their identities.

  6. CBR Matrix • A comprehensive multi-sectoral CBR programme should cover the key domains of well-being: health, education, livelihood, social and the empowerment of people with disabilities and their families. • The matrix has been developed to help CBR managers visualize the range and depth possible in a CBR programme. • Each of the five components, have been divided into elements which a comprehensive CBR programme may address depending on local circumstances.

  7. INTRODUCTION • Evolution of the disability concept - medical model to the rights-based approach • Disability scenario today – and move “Towards an inclusive society” • Development of CBR - Need for evidence-based practices to prove the effectiveness of the approach • Purpose of the CBR Guidelines

  8. Chapters on the Different Components • HEALTH • EDUCATION • LIVELIHOOD • SOCIAL - many CBR programmes have focused on basic physical rehabilitation, often ignoring the personal desires and social ambitions of individuals with disabilities • EMPOWERMENT - Empowerment happens when individuals or groups of people recognize that they alone can change their situation and then begin to do so

  9. CBR IN SPECIAL SCENARIOS • CBR and Crisis Situation - natural disasters, human-made disasters (conflict, war, technologic accidents, etc) • CBR and HIV/AIDS - Need for CBR to participate in the response to HIV • CBR and Mental Health - CBR has only recently started taking into account mental health issues and people affected by it are the most marginalized in any society • CBR and Leprosy - The role of CBR programmes is to include people who have leprosy- related disability in the services they provide and promote the full inclusion of people with leprosy-related disability in the life of their communities

  10. MANAGEMENT OF CBR • Starting and Strengthening CBR • Planning for CBR • Organizing and Developing Resources • Implementing the programme • Monitoring and Evaluation • Training of CBR Personnel
