East Timor
In East Timor, the ILO sent a consultant in December 2001
to assess the country’s needs related to developing
policies and practices that would encourage the inclusion and
equal treatment and opportunity for people with disabilities
in society, the economy and the workplace. At the
recommendation of the first consultant, a second consultant
was sent to East Timor to specifically address legislative
and policy needs. Funded through the Development Corporation
of Ireland project Employment of People with
Disabilities---The Impact of Legislation, the consultant
recommended that, among other things, the country develop a
disability council representative of key stakeholders that is
mandated to develop and make policy recommendations to the
Government.
For more information about disability related laws and policies
and the country consult our National Laws and
Information pages.
