Sector-specific constraints: regulations related to driving, handling equipment, health and safety standards, and aptitude requirements.
Objectives
Identify regulatory, technical, or organizational barriers to inclusion.
Highlight existing or emerging enablers across countries.
Provide a structured foundation for future recommendations and developments within the project.
