Abstract:
A quality of life (QOL) framework, theoretically grounded and contextually sensitive, has been used to measure the impact of policy outcomes such as the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD). This article presents an operational definition of supports to implement the CRPD toward QOL outcomes using a participative process. Each item of the CRPD has been paired by the means of an international Delphi study to specific support strategies. A panel of 93 experts (by knowledge and experience) from 17 countries participated in a multi-round process to define specific supports and their exportability to people with a disability. Consensus was achieved reaching an agreement of 75 % on 85 pairings of CRPD items-elements of supports and related support strategies to promote the impact of CRPD articles towards QOL outcomes. Furthermore, the operationalization of the CRPD through the development of assessment instruments, and the suggested strategies serve as an exemplary application of a QOL framework for policy implementation.
