Overview

The Disabled People’s Organisations Coalition, in partnership with the Office for Disability Issues, needs a supplier to deliver annual monitoring projects (over an initial three year period) to inform the DPO Coalition’s monitoring of how the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities is being realised (and implemented) in New Zealand.

Through these monitoring projects the DPO Coalition requires a supplier, who can deliver research services under the Disability Rights Promotion International monitoring approach and methodology, which is led by disabled people, ensuring that findings are from the perspective of disabled people.

The DPO Coalition needs a supplier who has the capacity to deliver monitoring projects and research using the DRPI monitoring approach and methodology, and can demonstrate how they will build this capacity 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 be part of the DPO Coalition’s monitoring of the Convention. The DPO Coalition’s monitoring role involves identifying areas that impact on the lives of disabled people, and undertaking monitoring projects to understand their individual experiences through research using the DRPI methodology.
