In 1980 this campaigning came to a head at the four-yearly World Congress meeting in <a href="/wiki/Winnipeg" title="Winnipeg">Winnipeg</a>, Canada. A key organisation in supporting disabled people at the 1980 meeting was the <i>Coalition of Provincial Organisations of the Handicapped</i>, COPOH, a national organisation of disabled people in Canada. It was COPOH's policy that any post-trauma rehabilitation of disabled people should be for a limited period only, followed by <a href="/wiki/Independent_living" title="Independent living">independent living</a>. Fifty disabled delegates met in Winnipeg for three days to plan out their interventions before attending the Congress, which was attended by around 250 disabled delegates plus a larger number of non-disabled delegates. A vote for Rehabilitation International to require a minimum level of membership and control by disabled people, rather than by non-disabled professionals alone, was again defeated. On the evening of Monday 23 June 1980 a "tremendous roar filled the Convention Centre in Winnipeg" as the vote was taken to set up the <i>World Coalition of Citizens with Disabilities</i>, soon afterwards known at the Disabled Peoples' International. An Ad-Hoc Planning Committee was established and met several times in the remaining time in Winnipeg with representatives from six countries, reporting back to disabled delegates on Wednesday 25 June 1980. This led to the Steering Committee with two representatives each from the seven regions of the world. Henry Enns, Canada, was elected chairperson, and Bengt Lindqvist, Sweden, vice-chairperson.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_2-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-2"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="United_Nations">United Nations</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Disabled_Peoples%27_International&amp;action=edit&amp;section=3" title="Edit section: United Nations"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Henry Enns managed to obtain a place at the UN Advisory Committee meeting in <a href="/wiki/Vienna" title="Vienna">Vienna</a>, Austria, on 20–29 August 1980 for the UN <a href="/wiki/International_Year_of_Disabled_Persons" title="International Year of Disabled Persons">International Year of Disabled Persons</a>, and through these connections stated to gain <a href="/wiki/United_Nations" title="United Nations">United Nations</a> (UN) recognition of DPI and some initial funding. Within a short period DPI was recognised as a legitimate NGO for consultation by the UN through its component organisations such as <a href="/wiki/UNESCO" title="UNESCO">UNESCO</a>, <a href="/wiki/United_Nations_Economic_and_Social_Council" title="United Nations Economic and Social Council">ECOSOC</a>, the <a href="/wiki/International_Labour_Organization" title="International Labour Organization">International Labour Organisation</a> (ILO), and in May 1985 with the <a href="/wiki/World_Health_Organization" title="World Health Organization">World Health Organization</a> (WHO). In October 1987 twelve disabled people from DPI attended the UN General Assembly when a report was being considered on the first half of the <i>UN Decade of Disabled Persons</i> <i>1983–1992</i>. The upstairs gallery for observers was inaccessible, so the DPI members were in the main room and used it to lobby the various governments' delegations directly. This moment was seen as a high point in DPI's influence at the UN.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_2-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-2"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="First_Congress">First Congress</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Disabled_Peoples%27_International&amp;action=edit&amp;section=4" title="Edit section: First Congress"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The first Congress of DPI took place in <a href="/wiki/Singapore" title="Singapore">Singapore</a> on 30 November – 4 December 1981 with 400 disabled delegates from all regions of the world. The British delegation, including <a href="/wiki/Vic_Finkelstein" title="Vic Finkelstein">Vic Finkelsein</a>, had been mandated by the <a href="/wiki/British_Council_of_Organisations_of_Disabled_People" title="British Council of Organisations of Disabled People">British Council of Organisations of Disabled People</a>, BCODP, to challenge some aspects of the draft constitution, and this discussion formed the agenda for the start of the debates and votes in Congress. The first congress meeting was filmed, but the editing was problematic and reportedly members were generally unhappy with the final version, saying it had not captured the enthusiasm of the Singapore Congress. The following key Executive posts were elected: </p> <ul><li>Ron Chandran-Dudley, Singapore, chairperson</li> <li>Henry Enns, Canada, deputy chairperson</li> <li>Bengt Lindqvist, Sweden, secretary</li> <li>Joshua Malinga, Zimbabwe, treasurer.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_2-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-2"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup></li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Early_divisions">Early divisions</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Disabled_Peoples%27_International&amp;action=edit&amp;section=5" title="Edit section: Early divisions"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In her book of the history of DPI in the 1980s by one of the participants throughout, Diane Driedger, reports that the early years between 1981 and 1985 included quite a few conflicts within both the two staff teams (one office team in Canada and the other in Sweden) and within the elected members on the World Council. The 1985 World Congress in the Bahamas resolved these tensions with the elections of some new members, and staff relations reportedly improved with more oversight of staff team leaders as the Executive moved from taking a hands-off 'honorary' role to being more managerial. With some early funding from the international development funds of Canada and Sweden, DPI in 1982–85 focused on leadership development, but it was noted that the delegates for training seminars were mostly male, were many were already involved in DPI structures, and with very few Deaf people participating. This all reportedly improved after 1985, and disabled women self-organised within DPI, at one point threatening to split from DPI if their concerns weren't addressed, echoing the split from Rehabilitation International that had defined the creation of DPI.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_2-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-2"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Regional_Development_Program">Regional Development Program</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Disabled_Peoples%27_International&amp;action=edit&amp;section=6" title="Edit section: Regional Development Program"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In 1985 DPI hired three Regional Development Officers for the Latin America region, based in El Salvador, Jamaica, and Argentina.
