Tender: Process Evaluation and Baselining of the Welsh Government's Disabled People's Rights Plan

About

Welsh Government is seeking a supplier for a process evaluation and baselining exercise for the Disabled People’s Rights Plan, launched on 15 December 2025 as a 10-year cross-government framework to advance the rights and opportunities of the 670,000 disabled people in Wales. The Plan targets barriers and inequalities across areas including employment, education, healthcare, access to services, transport, housing, community participation and justice, was published alongside a supporting document of short-term actions to be delivered in the first two years up to the end of 2027, and commits to delivering 67 short-term actions aligned with the Plan’s outcomes and with the principles of the UNCRPD and Welsh Government’s National Equality Objectives under the Public Sector Equality Duty. The commissioned work comprises a Process Evaluation to understand the Plan’s implementation and suggest improvements, and baselining work towards an Impact Evaluation to begin to understand whether the Plan has had an impact on the lives of disabled people in Wales.
