  29. CHALLENGES FOR CBR IN POST-2015 DEVELOPMENT AGENDA

  30. Mongolia • around 2.9 million people. It is also the world's second-largest landlocked country after Kazakhstan.

  31. Urban Poverty • Ulan Bator, the capitalis home to about 45% of the population.

  32. Mongolia; About 20% of the population live on less than US$1.25 per day

  33. Aging Population • According to recent UNESCAP reports, about 5 to 10 per cent of those aged over 65 show signs of Alzheimer’s disease in the Asia-Pacific region and an estimated 33 million people will be living with dementia in this region by 2030.

  34. Mongolia; About 59% of the total population is under age 30, 27% of whom are under 14.

  35. Health Care 1. Persons with disabilities, who make up 15% of the population, face widespread barriers in accessing health services and therefore experience greater unmet health care needs, worse health outcomes, and higher rates of poverty than persons without disabilities.

  36. 2. The disadvantage in relation to poorer health experienced by persons with disabilities has wider impacts on families, communities, and health systems

  37. 3. Improved access to health for persons with disabilities is not only a human right but also a critical enabling factor to achieving aspirations including education, employment, caring for and participating in family, community and public life.

  38. 4. Good health will lead to better overall socio-economic outcomes for persons with disabilities and achievement of broader global development goals.

  39. Education • Inclusive Education.

  40. Livelihood • Income • Disability Inclusive Business • Consumer • Employee • Entrepreneurial Business

  41. Social • Social protection • Relationship with Family and friends • Culture and Art • Recreation, Leisure and sports • Justice

  42. Sustainability • Local fund-raising within developing countries to facilitate sustainability has been tried by implementers in the disability an development sector. • Not give a fish, but teach how to catch the fish. (Capacity Development)

  43. A key principle for sustainability is to have the local government take over and sustain the programmes that are initiated with external support. It is important for external donor agencies to fit their own plans and ideas into the local governments’ plans and budgets.

  44. Self-help groups and associations of persons with disabilities, who are the primary stakeholders for CBR, can contribute to sustainability. Linking these groups with other successful community based organizations such as women’s federations, can also be of help.

  45. Collaboration between local government, parents, and CBR staff has been reported to be successful in continuing some CBR activities; while including persons with disabilities into local level development councils can ensure that disability issues are included in development planning
