ABOUT THE PROJECT

There are substantial differences in the proportion of students with disabilities among university students. Inclusion of students with disabilities in higher education appears to be more successful in countries with better welfare systems and more inclusive education systems. The European Union launched the Strategy for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities 2021-2030, which intends to tackle the diverse challenges that persons with disabilities face. It aims to progress in all areas of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, both at EU and Member State level.

The project will offer innovative new service for remote curricula and study to WBL transition in the HEI that uses best practices of already existing curricula, ICT tools and remote learning programs in order to build a suite of embedded learning educational resources to build key transversal skills of Differently Abled Students in Entrepreneurship. It will address the needs, empower and raise the capacity and competences of Differently Abled Students and practitioners through the introduction of the accessible remote learning curricula dedicated to HEI students with hearing / vision impairments.

One of the goals is to develop and engage a community of practice from HEI, Entrepreneurship and CSO sectors to facilitate and offer a better transition for from school to WBL. The project will serve as starting point to advocate for the recognition and sustainability of remote accessible HEI curricula in entrepreneurship on local, regional, national and international level.
