 The research was to promote the inclusion of disability in emergency, conflict and refugee programmes. The particular objectives were to assess a) the extent of inclusion, b) the impact of networking and c) the role of resources in post-tsunami contexts. The geographical focus was mainly Sri Lanka, with contributions from India and Indonesia.
