ANED 2010 priorities and workplan

The European Commission has allocated funding for ANED for 4 years. During  the third year (2010), the Network does continue working on the themes Law and policy (updating and detailing the mapping of EU law and policy instruments), Comparative data (providing comparative data on a number of quantitative implementation indicators), Employment (reviewing the 2010 National Reform Programmes for Growth and Jobs) and Social Protection / Social Inclusion (reviewing the 2010 National Strategy Reports for Social Protection and Social Inclusion) .

Specific theme for this year is Equality of Educational and Training Opportunities for Young Disabled People. ANED will also produce a report on Disability-specific Entitlements and their Transferability.

Members were able to meet to share expertise and help shape the new EU Disability Strategy from 2010. The meeting focused on two key questions: What evidence is needed to measure progress on disability equality in Europe? What are the priorities for policy action at the European level and national levels?

Welcome to ANEDeasy-to-read

The Academic Network of European Disability experts (ANED) was created by the European Commission in December 2007. ANED will establish and maintain a pan-European academic network in the disability field to support policy development in collaboration with the Commission's Disability Unit. Its philosophy and aims support the objectives of European disability policy towards the goal of full participation and equal opportunities for all disabled people.
 
ANED builds upon the expertise of existing disability research centres and national networks, supported by contacts in each country, expert rapporteurs in specific themes, and links to other policy and research networks. In this way, it provides a co-ordinating infrastructure of academic support for practical implementation of the European Disability Strategy and the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities in Europe.
 
The Network is managed by Human European Consultancy (NL) in partnership with the Centre for Disability Studies at the University of Leeds (UK).
