The Social Analysis and Disability Guidance Note was developed by the Social Analysis and Policy Team of SDV, in collaboration with the Human Development Network’s Disability and Development Team of the World Bank. The process included consultations with and the Bank's Regional Disability Coordinators, and also with external NGOs involved in the Global Partnership on Disability and Development. The Social Analysis and Disability Guidance Note offers a practical guide to integrating social analysis and disability-inclusive development into sector and thematic projects and programs of the World Bank. Based on the Social Analysis Sourcebook (2003), the Note provides an easy-to-access resource for the social analysis of disability. The Guidance Note examines disability via sectors, cross-cutting issues, as well as by each of the Bank’s Regions. It also demonstrates how to ensure disability-inclusive development in the project cycle. The 12 boxes found throughout the text highlight a cornucopia of disability-related issues from human rights to institutional barriers for youth with disabilities. The seven annexes offer additional in depth information: Disability Policy checklists, sample Terms of References (TOR), an extensive reference list and a list of resources available on the Internet. The Guidance Note is not intended to promote special or separate disability and development projects, but rather to assist Bank projects in better incorporating the needs and concerns of people with disabilities, as well as integrating a disability perspective into ongoing sector and thematic work programs, and to adopt an integrated and inclusive approach to disability.
