“Nothing about Us without Us”: Next Level

Activity: Talk or presentation › Contributed talk › science-to-science

Description

Education is a prominent facilitator of inclusion amongst up-to-date Information and Communication Technologies, Assistive Technologies and(e)Accessibility. While there is a most complete corpus of initiatives, guidelines and regulations in Europe dealing with delivering education to children with disabilities in elementary and secondary education, the number of initiatives, measures and regulations get scarce when it comes to Higher Education and further diminishes at doctorate level. This leads to a lack of peers (people with severe disabilities) in further(university) research, project work, teaching and last but not least also policy making.
