Aligned with the Ten Principles of the ILO Global Business and Disability Network (GBDN) Charter and the universal principles that shape the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, the ILO GBDN Self-Assessment Tool was launched in November 2022. It allows businesses in any country to set priorities for action as they set out to deliver the best practices that benefits both companies and persons with disabilities. Speakers will share how their organisations use the Tool and the respective lessons learned.
