This report presents findings from three months of remote research on disability-inclusive humanitarian action. It analyses how humanitarian actors try to address these barriers for persons with disabilities and explores whether they approach inclusion from a rights-based understanding of disability. More precisely, it examines how humanitarian organizations implement the four ‘must do’ actions of the IASC Guidelines and identifies challenges and progress in this process. The research has been guided by the following central research questions:
By answering these questions, this report seeks to describe and understand both challenges and progress in implementing the IASC Guidelines in an extremely challenging humanitarian context.
