A guide and toolkit from UN Women and the UN Partnership on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities to help organisations take an intersectional approach to their work. It was co-designed with civil society organisations from the disability and equality sectors. It includes a framework for understanding intersectionality, practical tools, and case studies. It can be used to look at individual situations, programmes, or policies, and is designed to fit into existing ways of working.
