Partners
International Disability Alliance (IDA), Commonwealth Medical Trust (Commat), Women's Major Group (WMG)
Description

Addressing the gap between inclusion rhetoric and practice, this session showcased concrete ways to embed marginalized voices—especially persons with disabilities and women—into SDG policy cycles and VNRs. Solutions spanned community‑led data and shadow reporting, accessible consultation frameworks (IDA/WMG), capacity‑building (Commat), and collaboration models that improve accountability. Interactive elements (polling, shared tools) supported participants to adapt inclusive methodologies within national contexts.
