A/HRC/7/61 page 6 Greater country engagement 13. The Office has significantly increased its work on human rights and disability with countries in light of the adoption of the Convention. OHCHR has provided information on the Convention and its Optional Protocol for the revised OHCHR Monitoring Manual which will be finalized in 2008. OHCHR has also promoted the inclusion of information on human rights and disability in the reports submitted by the Office for the universal periodic review process of the Human Rights Council. At the country level, activities have ranged from raising awareness about the Convention, reviewing legislation, undertaking country research, strengthening partnerships with other intergovernmental organizations, civil society and national human rights institutions and providing training of government officials. The following provides a short summary of the main activities: (a) In Afghanistan, the human rights component of the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) has sought to raise awareness about the rights of persons with disabilities through co-funding a television and radio project with the UNDP National Programme for Action on Disability. The project uses the media to promote positive images of persons with disabilities at the community level as well as to advocate for the rights of persons with disabilities and influence policy development and implementation at the national level; (b) In the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the Office undertook the first phase of an advocacy campaign to promote ratification of the Convention with parliamentarians, the preparation of advocacy materials on the Convention and review of relevant legislation. The second phase will begin in 2008 and will involve working with parliamentarians and the preparation of a nationwide workshop to examine the draft bill on the rights of persons with disabilities; (c) The OHCHR East African Regional Office in Addis Ababa established a United Nations working group on disability in cooperation with UNICEF which meets on a weekly basis. The working group seeks to coordinate United Nations country work on the Convention and to strengthen engagement with civil society on this issue. The Office has undertaken efforts to mainstream disability into overall programmes, including through the inclusion of disability rights issues in the OHCHR-led five-year capacity building programme of the Ethiopian Human Rights Commission and training of Disabled Persons Organizations on treaty body reporting. The Office also contributed to a two-day sensitization workshop on the rights of persons with disability for East African journalists and was actively involved in the celebration of the International Day of Persons with Disabilities through the establishment of a disability award programme; (d) In Guatemala, OHCHR has promoted the Convention by holding three workshops for government institutions and officials, the Ombudsman and civil society organizations. The first workshop, held on 11 May 2007, was on the content of the Convention and its Optional Protocol. The second workshop, on 24 July 2007, considered the role of the Ombudsman/Procurador de Derechos Humanos in implementing and monitoring the Convention, while the third workshop, on 18 September 2007, examined the reforms required to ensure conformity with the CRPD;
