17.01.2022 Pathways15 are thrilled to announce #KarenMcCall from #KarlenCommunications as one of our keynote speakers on Monday 30 November. What’s the biggest lesson we can take from the Covid-19 pandemic? Due to inattention to accessibility and inclusion, many of the world’s one billion plus persons with disabilities will be left behind and unable to reach their potential or strive toward economic independence. Among the countries that have ratified the convention on the Rights of D...isabilities and those striving toward the Sustainable Development Goals, there needs to be agreement on a #GlobalInclusiveEducationStandard that provides a baseline that addresses the disconnect between being accommodated for and included in our own education. Register for the free, online #Pathways15 conference to hear KarenMcCall as she explores the difference and strategies for moving the standard forward. bit.ly/pathwaysonline #disabilitysupport #disabilityadvocate #pathways15 #advancinginclusionin2020andbeyond #inclusioninhighereducation #inclusioninVET #disabilityinclusion #ATENDNetwork #ADCET
