Promoting Employment via Legislation
This is a curriculum development project in support of a prior effort funded by the Development Cooperation Ireland and The International Labour Organization. The focus is to enhance the capacity of national governments in developing countries, employers,' workers', and organizations serving individuals with disabilities to collaboratively promote the employability of and the employment prospects for people with disabilities through effective non-discrimination legislation, policy, and programs. An international training curriculum is being designed by Cornell University's Employment and Disability Institute in collaboration with the ILO and will offered through partnering universities in several developing countries including Thailand, Vietnam, Beijing, Mongolia, Ethiopia, Tanzania, South Africa, Uganda, Kenya and Zambia.
