An Inclusive Mobility Webinar ‘Making mobility programmes more inclusive for students with disabilities’ takes place on 9th November 2020 from 13.00 – 14.30.
The webinar is part of the two-year Erasmus+ funded EPFIME project coordinated by SIHO and the Flemish Ministry of Education and Training, with Irish-based partners. AHEAD and the IUA.
Many in Higher Education contributed last year through the ‘Inclusive Mobility Survey’, focusing specifically on the mobility of students with disabilities. The online surveys gathered 1,134 responses from students with disabilities, 114 higher education institutions and 23 ministries of Education across the EHEA.
During the webinar, there will be the opportunity to learn about the research findings on inclusive mobility of students with disabilities in the European Higher Education Area – the barriers and enablers – as well as discover policy recommendations and good practices identified through the research.
