Whaikaha - Disabled People Led Monitoring Contract
Tender ID: 559208
Tender Details
Tender Description
Whaikaha - Ministry of Disabled People would like to engage a suitably qualified supplier to deliver monitoring projects for 3 years for, and on behalf of, the Disabled People’s Organisations (DPO) Coalition on how the UNCRPD is being realised (and implemented) in New Zealand.
The monitoring projects must follow the Disability Rights Promotion International (DRPI) methodology, to enable the DPO Coalition to fulfil its monitoring obligations through robust research findings on how disabled people are experiencing their rights, from their perspective.
Whaikaha and the DPO Coalition are seeking a supplier who has the capacity and capability to deliver using the DRPI approach, and who can demonstrate how they will continue to build this capacity and capability over the contract period. This means having disabled people involved and/or leading all elements of the research process and adapting DRPI research methods to different communities and/or topics annually.
This is a unique opportunity to work with disabled people and tāngata whaikaha Māori, through their representative organisations, to make their voices heard. The project will support the DPO Coalition’s role as part of the IMM to monitor how the UNCRPD is being implemented from the perspective of disabled people. It provides the opportunity to grow capacity and capability in disabled person led research, and to enable key insights into the everyday experiences of disabled people.
