SUMMARY:European expert meeting: Inclusive Education for an Inclusive Europe
DESCRIPTION:Inclusive Education for an Inclusive Europe\nCOFACE Disability European expert meeting Tuesday 28th March 2023\, 9.00-17.30 Monza\, Italy \nRead the full meeting report here \nThe COFACE Disability Platform for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and their Families (COFACE-Disability) was founded by COFACE in 1998 to improve the representativeness of people with disabilities and their families. With more than 20 members\, COFACE-Disability fights for the implementation of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and for sufficient\, appropriate care provision and services\, close-to-home and in-home help services for people with support needs and their families to be made available in all Member States\, and for resources\, assistance and provision to be harmonised within the EU. COFACE-Disability defends the need to develop public care infrastructures supporting persons with disabilities and their families following a life cycle\, whole family approach\, boosting independent living and meaningful inclusion from birth to old age. This includes service provision that responds to the needs of persons with disabilities and their families but also to the removal of barriers in mainstream services. The topic of this event\, inclusive education\, lies at the intersection of these two necessary paradigm shifts. Recent EU frameworks such as the EU Child Guarantee\, the Strategy on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities\, the European Care Strategy\, have renewed the impetus around strengthening our education system for more inclusion and resilience. Building on the results of the 2018 COFACE conference on sustainable and future-proof education systems\, the COFACE-Disability back-to-school webinar of 2020\, the different practices highlighted in the 2021 S.H.I.F.T. report and the expertise of COFACE Disability members\, COFACE-Disability and AIAS Monza held a 1-day European expert meeting on inclusive education in Monza (Italy). Taking the Italian system as a starting point for discussion with European peers\, we brought together organisations of families of persons with disabilities and service providers\, education professionals\, persons with disabilities and their families and policy-makers from several countries to examine key actions to implement inclusive education in line with the UNCRPD and the General Comment n4. We aim to apply the COFACE whole-family lens to the topic of inclusive education as a way to build inclusive societies for persons with disabilities and their families: \n\nEducation for building independent living and meaningful inclusion in society;\nInclusive education from a life course perspective\, namely inclusive education beyond compulsory education;\nLooking at the continuum of services between formal and non-formal education with an added focus on culture and sports.\n\nWe hope this meeting will foster innovation and knowledge transfer between civil society organisations\, create new synergies between COFACE and COFACE Disability members and key Italian and European stakeholders\, and contribute to the S.H.I.F.T. towards more inclusive education systems in Europe.
