The issue of disability should be taken into account at all stages of the project and program lifespan, from planning and design to implementation and evaluation. In the planning and design stage, consideration should be given to ensuring that the project or program is accessible and inclusive to people with disabilities. This may involve consulting with people with disabilities to understand their needs and preferences, and making adjustments to the design or scope of the project as needed. During implementation, it is important to ensure that any barriers to access or participation are identified and addressed in a timely manner. Finally, during the evaluation stage, the effectiveness of any measures taken to ensure accessibility and inclusion should be assessed to identify areas for improvement.
