The illustration takes place in a refugee camp. There is a registration booth where a woman wearing a headscarf is sitting at a desk taking information from a woman in a wheelchair also wearing a headscarf and queuing. Behind her there is a man and a woman standing, a woman with two children talking in front of an accessible bathroom. In front of them there is an accessibility ramp and three people: A man providing information with a megaphone while a woman translates this information into sign language for a man with hearing impairment. There is a tent where the registration booth is located and also a waiting area where two men and a woman with visual impairment are seated. A truck carrying food supplies enters the refugee camp and it can be seen that they are unloading several packages of food.

Phase 4 – Leave no one behind!

Since 2016, the Leave No One Behind! project series focuses on mainstreaming disability in global and local humanitarian action in line with the IASC Guidelines on Inclusion. Phase 4 (2025-2027) builds upon our successes of the previous phases and enhances the uptake of the IASC Guidelines for lasting impact through side-scaling and localization. We are working on global level and in six countries in East and West Africa.

Phase 4 focuses on four interconnected areas:

Disability-inclusion in Humanitarian Coordination

We strengthen mechanisms to support disability-inclusive humanitarian coordination at country level by facilitating technical support mechanisms and disability working groups. Additionally, we enhance stakeholder capacities and support Organisations of Persons with Disabilities (OPDs) to meaningfully engage in humanitarian coordination.

Uptake, Side-scaling and Localisation of Tools and Guidances

In Phase 4 we are focussing on the uptake and localisation of developed programming and operational tools and guidences on disability-inclusion through capacity building, innovative approaches and close collaboration with OPDs. Beside, we are adressing existing gaps by advancing inter-agency tools and guidances for inclusive Food Security, WASH and Health programming.

Meaningful Participation of OPDs - Empowerment and Removal of Barriers

Meaningfull collaborations with global, regional and local OPDs are essential for the success of phase 4. However, participation barriers still exist within the humanitarian system, and the capacities of local OPDs need to be strengthened. We adress existing barriers with small-grants, trainings and facilitation of cross-organizational learning.

Advancement of Disability-Inclusion in the Global Humanitarian System

5 years after the launch of the IASC Guidelines on Inclusion advances have been made but important gaps remain. In Phase 4 we are working on the global level to advance the integration of disability-inclusion in the humanitarian system in a meaningful and more sustainable way through sharing of good practices and tools at global events like the GDS 2025, supporting the monitoring of GDS committments and a IASC Guideline stocktake.
