Renforcement de l’influence de la société civile dans le domaine du handicap

Strengthening the influence of civil society
on the disability issue

en Français  La meilleure prise en compte du handicap dans les politiques publiques (nationales et locales) passe par des processus impliquant des collaborations fortes entre Etats et société civile (notamment les organisations de personnes handicapées). Les attentes sont fortes tant du point de vue des acteurs « du Sud », en particulier des ONG, que des acteurs de la coopération internationale, qui entendent participer et soutenir ces processus de « bonne gouvernance ».
Dans de nombreux contextes, et en particulier sur le handicap, la société civile a besoin de renforcer ses capacités d’influence, et cela autour de plusieurs axes :
in English  The most effective means of integrating disability in public policy, whether national or local, is through procedures involving close cooperation between states and civil society, in particular the organisations of persons with disabilities. Expectations are high, both among actors of the “South” (in particular NGOs) , and among the actors of international cooperation, who wish to support and take part in the processes of “good governance”.
With regard to disability and other key issues, there is a need for civil society to exert its influence. To do this, civil society must:
   
- Connaître et influencer les POLITIQUES PUBLIQUES - know and influence PUBLIC POLICIES.
Les organisations de la société civile qui veulent influencer les politiques publiques ont besoin d’en avoir une meilleure compréhension, que ce soit de leur élaboration, de leur mise en place ou de leur suivi.
Civil society bodies who seek to influence public policies need a better understanding of how they are conceived, drawn up, put in place and monitored.
   
- disposer d’Outils pratiques pour le PLAIDOYER - possess TOOLS FOR ADVOCACY.
Les organisations de la société civile ont besoin de développer compétences et ressources sur le plaidoyer, afin de mettre en avant leur thématique, et de renforcer leur influence sur les décideurs.
Civil society organisations need to develop their resources and competence in the field of advocacy, in order to put their case and strengthen their influence over decision and policy-makers.
   
- renforcer l’AUTODETERMINATION DU MOUVEMENT DES PERSONNES HANDICAPEES : - increase EMPOWERMENT OF THE DISABILITY MOVEMENT:
c’est un des objectifs majeurs des programmes de renforcement et de soutien des organisations de personnes handicapées (empowerment), afin de leur permettre d’acquérir une position renforcée et reconnue d’acteurs de la scène sociale et politique.
This is one of the most important objectives of programmes to strengthen and support organisations of persons with disabilities (or DPOs), to enable them to achieve an acknowledged and more influential position as actors of the political and social scene.
