Description

The project will, with the help of assistive technologies and trained professional staff, contribute to creating equal opportunities in education for children with disabilities attending ‘Centres for Training and Education (CTEs)’.

Project activities include:

  • Equipping CTEs with assistive technologies based on a needs analysis individually tailored to each CTEs (including, type and amount of equipment already available, number of children attending, types of disabilities).
  • Training professional staff at the CTEs on the use of assistive technologies as a tool and teaching methods regarding teaching children with disabilities as well as sharing best practice on the use of assistive technologies (through e.g. workshops, conferences and study visits).
  • Awareness raising activities focusing on inclusive education for children with disabilities.
