Executive Secretariat for Integral Development (SEDI)
In the field of the rights of persons with disabilities, the
Department of Social Inclusion (DIS) is responsible for promoting the
two main normative instruments of the Inter-American System on this
theme: The Inter-American Convention for the Elimination of All Forms of
Discrimination against Persons with Disabilities, and the Program of
Action for the Decade of the Americas for the Rights and Dignity of
Persons with Disabilities (PAD).
In order to promote both instruments, the DIS has two fundamental
roles:
On the one hand, it supports the Inter-American Convention as the
Technical Secretariat of the Committee in charge of monitoring the
Convention (CEDDIS). Within this perspective, the DIS is responsible for
providing technical, professional and logistical assistance to members
of the Committee, such as the preparation of meetings, reports, support
documents, and recommendations on the subject.
Furthermore, the DIS supports the Program of Action for the Decade
and oversees the Technical Secretariat (SEDISCAP) charged of its
implementations. Within this framework, the DIS produces recommendations
on how to conduct evaluations and monitor compliance reports submitted
by Member States. Moreover, it develops cooperation mechanisms among
countries (governments and civil society) towards to implement programs
and mainstream projects on disability issues for vulnerable groups.
Therefore, the role of the DIS on the field of disability is
continuing to promote the implementation of instruments of the
Inter-American System, encouraging each of the Member States to
undertake social, political, economic and cultural programs, plans and
actions towards the inclusion and full participation of persons with
disabilities in all aspects of society, and with the purpose of
providing them equal opportunities. Moreover, it works to promote the
development of effective measures for the access to services and
programs of rehabilitation for persons with disabilities.
