Program approaches could include but are not limited to one or more of the following areas: Fostering constructive dialogue and engagement between Saudi civil society and government actors to strengthen respect for the rights of persons with disabilities, supporting implementation and enforcement of disability standards and laws; Raising awareness at all levels about the contributions of persons with disabilities and their families to the economic prosperity of society, as well as raising awareness of the economic, social, and individual costs of exclusion of persons with disabilities and their families; Providing technical assistance to educate the private sector and Civil Society Organizations (CSOs), including Disabled Peoples Organizations (DPOs), on practices of non-discrimination and raising public awareness of the rights of persons with disabilities at the local and national levels; Providing technical assistance to DPOs to improve their internal organizational capacity and public advocacy efforts; Promoting non-discriminatory education or employment practices in the public and private sector; Promoting vocational training, vocational education, job readiness, and self-advocacy for persons with disabilities and DPOs.
