A guide to inclusive education
03 December 2023|Publication
In conflict-affected settings, the challenges of accessing education are magnified, particularly for refugee and forcibly displaced children and youth with disabilities. Refugee children with disabilities are more likely to be marginalised in every aspect of their lives: from educational practices to social activities and community engagement. Education is certainly no exception.
Through the experience gained through JRS’s education programmes in displacement contexts, we developed a guide on inclusive education. The guide is developed around four sections:
- Inclusive education definition and principles
- Global Conventions and International Frameworks
- Tools for the identification of people with disabilities and need assessments
- Necessary actions, recommendations, and suggested activities for the implementation of inclusive education project
JRS is strongly committed to go beyond the integration of a student with disability into the classroom. JRS would like to completely adapt the learning environment to allow for her/his full participation in classroom activities.
