This handbook draws upon extensive research, international human rights accords, and practical experiences to provide educators with a roadmap for implementing inclusive

education. It begins by exploring the characteristics, challenges, and barriers faced by individuals with disabilities, offering a deeper understanding of their unique learning needs.

It highlights the legal frameworks and rights established by international conventions, such as the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) and

the European Disability Strategy which emphasise the importance of accessibility, nondiscrimination, and equal opportunities in education.
