Fourth Review and appraisal, para. 11 (c)

“Employment policies and programmes should be disability-sensitive and promote equalization of opportunities with reference to the non-disabled, to skills development training, to technical and extension services, to market information and to development incentives and capital markets. There is, moreover, a complementary relationship between progress in the equalization of opportunities in social services, education in particular, and sustainable livelihoods.”
