Mission and objectives

UNESCO Regional Office for the Caribbean is seeking the support of an Online Volunteer to design and format a Disability-Inclusive Disaster Risk Management (DiDRM) Roadmap developed in collaboration with the Jamaica Council for Persons with Disabilities (JCPD) and the World Institute on Disability (WID). The Roadmap outlines strategic priorities, implementation actions, partnership opportunities, monitoring mechanisms, and governance considerations to strengthen JCPD's leadership and coordination role in advancing disability inclusion across Jamaica's disaster risk management system. The objective of this assignment is to transform the Roadmap into a visually appealing, professional, and accessible publication that effectively communicates key messages and strategic priorities to policymakers, disaster management practitioners, organizations of persons with disabilities, development partners, and community stakeholders.
